This is a cute vintage
Nagoya obi with 'Tsubaki'(camellia) design, which is embroidered.
Shining gold foil threads are added to the embroidery design.
Textile is glossy shusu(satin) silk and has soft touch.
The length is rather short. 337cm(11ft 0.68in)
'Maegara' (front patterned part) is on one side.
When you start wrapping the obi from your left tummy to right(Rotate obi clockwise), Maegara will show.
Although not shown on the figure, it has a tiny stain on leaf design near center 'otaiko'(square bow).
It has a tiny weaving flaw on 'maegara' (front pattern on belly). (3rd flaw photo)
It has a rather big stain near 'tesaki'(narrow end). (1st flaw photo)
For the details, please refer to the photos and figure.
Though it has some imperfections by ages, please enjoy its full taste of vintage!
