This is a smart
nagoya obi with single egret motif dyed in the main otaiko (square bow) and maegara (front pattern) areas.
Dyed in white against the black background, its flying figure looks full of grace and dignity.
Textile is sioze silk, and it's soft.
Patinas are faintly noticeable on the white birds.
There are whitish marks caused by rubbing above the otaiko area (A).
It also has other flaws including creases made when tied.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
Overall, it's still in very good condition.
