Nagoya obi with 'tanzaku'(strip of paper), 'matsu'(pine tree), branched ume(Japanese apricot), 'kiku'(chrysanthemum) and 'fuji' (wisteria) design, which is dyed.
Embroidery work is added to the design partly.
Textile is Shioze silk, and it has soft and comfortable smooth touch which is the feature of Shioze silk.
Maegara(front patterned part) is only one side.
When you start wrapping the obi from your left tummy to right(Rotate obi clockwise), designed side of Maegara will show.
It has slight folding lines but no other prominent flaws.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
It is in very good condition as a whole.
