This is an appealing vintage
nagoya obi with elegant rose and 'karakusa'(arabesque) pattern, which are woven in the black background. Lots of gold threads are used and it contrast favorably with black, which product more retro and gorgeous atmosphere.
Textile is silk and has relatively medium touch.
Although there is a bit of feeling of use and has some flaws such as stains, smudges, and frays, but they are not disturbing. Please refer the photos and sheet for other flaws and details.
It surely has some flaws because of its old age, but it must still be able to make a wonderful match with your favorite vintage kimono!
