I have kept it in a chest of drawers without using it even once since I received it. There is a possibility that it may have changed during storage. It's not obvious to the eye, so I've listed it as having scratches and dirt. It says "Muromachi Donsu" and "Silk" on the obi. The pattern appears to be auspicious. The following is information I found online: A Maru-obi (round obi) made of "Muromachi Donsu" (Muromachi Brocade) with a "peach pattern inside a hexagon" is considered an auspicious pattern (Kicchō-gara) and is mainly used for formal occasions such as weddings, especially as an obi for bridal attire.
