This is an attractive Fukuro obi with stream, bamboo fence and autumn flowers such as 'Kiku'(chrysanthemum), 'Hagi'(bush clover), 'susuki'(Japanese silver grass) and 'ominaeshi'(patrinia) on stripe pattern, which is woven.
Gold threads woven in the pattern are gracefully shining against the gold and silver background.
Textile is exquisite silk and has soft touch.

It seems like the original owner of this obi enjoyed many fancy bow.
So that there are folding lines and wrinkles to the tare end though not indicated on the figure.
The wrong side has slight molds.
For the details, please refer to the photos and figure.

Though it has some used feeling, it is still wearable enough.
Please enjoy its attractive fashion!
