This is a refined
Nagoya obi with "Karabana"(imaginary Chinese flower) and pair 'oshidori'(mandurin duck) on 'shikishi' (square paper) design, which is dyed with pigments.
Gold glazing outline is added to the design.
Textile is exquisite silk and has very soft touch.
It is woven fine hail pattern on the base.
Stains on 'otaiko'(square bow) and 'maegara' (front pattern on belly) are tiny and not noticeable.
It also has some other flaws such as rather prominent folding lines.
For the details, please refer to the photos and figure.
It is in very good condition as a whole.
Please enjoy its refined fashion!
