This is a vintage
nagoya obi with stunning
shishi pattern, which is woven with 'yukiwa'(snow crystal pattern) pattern in the red background.
Textile is jinken(rayon) and has soft touch.
Unfortunately it has a long tear in the tare end.
It has some other flaws as photos show.
We can't say it is in very good condition, but it must be wonderful handicraft material or interior decor!
*Tare part 11.4 in ( 29 cm) x 40.6 in ( 103 cm)
Belt part 5.9 in ( 15 cm) x 83.1 in ( 211 cm)
