This is an alluring
nagoya obi with classical 'kusudama'(flowers ball) pattern woven.
Against the deep brownish background, the pink and gold of the flowers are bright and appealing to the eyes.
Textile silk and jinken (rayon) blend, and it's soft.
The narrow belt part has a large stain vaguely spread, although it won't come outside when tied (B).
Shown in photo A is more like color difference of the black warps rather than a stain.
There are other flaws as well.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
Overall, it's still in very good condition.
*Tare part 12.2 in ( 31 cm) x 44.1 in ( 112 cm)
Belt part 6.1 in ( 15.5 cm) x 85.8 in ( 218 cm)
*Approx background color - brown near black HTML code ( 503D43)
