This is a
Tsumugi Fukuro Obi.
It is embroidered with a distant mountain, hanamon(flower circle), 'karabana'(an imaginary Chinese flower), shippo-tsunagi(jointed four circles) and 'hanabishi'(flower-diamond) pattern.
Drawn work(a technique of removing thread partly to make a ground textile seen through) is also added to the pattern.
The textile is knotted
Tsumugi silk, but has soft touch.
There is slight discoloration in the base due to its age.
There are also folding lines.
For details, please check the figure and photos.
If you do not mind these slight faults, it still can be worn.
We hope you enjoy this stylish fashion that has great presence!
