This is a
fukuro obi with hillside scenery pattern, which is woven mainly with silver or golden metallic coated threads.
Graceful cranes are flying over the hillds.
Seeing the Chinese characters woven inside the tare end, this scenery must be of Kitayama, Kyoto.
Textile is silk and has a little stiff touch.
Most of the flaws indicated are faint and not outstanding.
However, patinas are rather noticeable in the blank area and over the reverse side.
For the details of the flaws, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
