This is a
fukuro obi with a dazzling woven pattern of a flowers circle pattern, which has gorgeous taste of Rimpa.
Various flowers of four seasons are woven elegantly in the gold circle pattern.
In the pattern, lots of pure gold coated threads are used. ( In the end, the word 'Honkin Paku'(genuine gold foil ) is woven in.)
Textile is silk, and it's soft.
As the photos and the sheet show, there is a rather prominent folding line. There are some stains mainly in the blank part.
The flaws are not disturbing and it can be tied on formal occasions.
*Approx background color - ivory/gold
Softness ( Exceptionally Soft,□ Soft, Medium, Comparatively Stiff, Stiff )
