This is a vintage
Maru obi with flying crane, bamboo, 'kiku'(chrysanthemum) and 'tsuzumi'(Japanese drum) on 'shikishi'(square paper) design, which is woven.
Textile is 'Jinken'(rayon) and has soft touch.
The pattern on otaiko(square bow) part is designed upside down from kaikiri-line(end mark line) to be tied with hikinuki style.
It is relatively short, 384cm (12'6'').
It has discolorations and folding lines by ages and use.
It has some other flaws so please check photos and figure.
Though it has some flaws by ages, please enjoy its full taste of vintage!
