This is a
Tsumugi Fukuro obi with red 'Kiku'(chrysanthemum) pattern, which is dyed.
The graceful line of stem and vivid flower pattern glows very well on the tranquil color background.
Textile is rustic soft
Tsumugi silk with knobs of yarns.
There are partial discoloration along the folding lines.
There are noticeable discoloration below 'otaiko'(square bow) and near by 'maegara' (front pattern on belly)(A).
There are frays on the corners.
For the details, please refer to the photos and figure.
If you don't mind the discoloration, it is still in wearable condition.
Enjoy wearing the tasteful design.
