This is a refined
Nagoya obi with stream, wave, mountain, 'Kiku'(chrysanthemum) and 'Hagi'(Japanese bush clover) pattern, which is woven.
Foil on the pattern is shining modestly.
Textile is exquisite silk and has soft touch.
It has a tiny snag on bottom 'otaiko'(square bow), that could be hidden when you tie it.
It has a tiny twisted thread like imperfection on 'maegara' (front pattern on belly) of Kansai wrap(rotate obi clockwise) side. (A)
Frays on corners and folding lines are not prominent.
For the details, please refer to the photos and figure.
Though it has some imperfections, it is still wearable enough.
Please enjoy its refined design!
