This is a fabulous Fukuro obi with "Karabana"(imaginary Chinese flower) 'Karakusa'(arabesque) design, which is dyed.
Kara-shibori(Shibori(tie-dye) style processing) is added to the design.
Woven gold foil threads are shining tastefully.
Textile is exquisite silk and has light touch.
There is a dyer's signature on upper 'tare'(wide end).
Both ends are rather roughly sewn, that are no problem to wear.

Although it has slight folding lines, no other prominent imperfections.
For the details, please refer to the photos and figure.

It's still wearable enough with very good condition.
Please enjoy its fabulous fashion!
