This is a gorgeous Hon Fukuro obi with Rokkasen (six best waka poets) pattern, which is woven on the black color base.
Lots of shining gold and silver foil threads pattern is glamorous.
Textile is exquisite silk and has soft touch.
Lining is not added inside.

It has loose threads on weaving yarn of 'maegara' (front pattern on belly).
However, when you start wrapping the obi from your right tummy to left(Rotate obi counterclockwise), they will be hidden.
Although not shown on the figure, it has discoloration on white parts of 'maegara' (front pattern on belly) of Kansai wrap(rotate obi clockwise) side.
It has a blueish stain on 'taresaki'(end of part), that could be hidden when you tie it.
It also has some other imperfections such as rather prominent folding lines.
For the details, please refer to the photos and figure.

Though it has some imperfections, it is still wearable enough.
Please enjoy its gorgeous fashion!
