This is an elegant fukuro obi with fan shape and ume (plum blossoms) pattern, which is woven over the delicate golden background.
Its design of the side edges differently patterned from the middle looks as if this piece is framed and is very sophisticated.
Textile is silk, and it's soft.

As the photos and the sheet show, a few small snags are coming out.
There are folding lines left as well.
However, as a whole, it's still in very good condition.

Its understated tones will allow people of wide ranging ages to put on this piece.

*Approx background color - silver
