This is a sioze
nagoya obi with dramatic peony motif, which is dyed vividly.
Textile is sioze silk, and it has soft and smooth touch.
It has some flaws as photos show. The stains (A) are slight dyestuff stains. A maegara(front patterned part) part has a small prominent stain, but another maegara side is OK.
As a whole, it is in very good condition, and it can be tied.
