This is a fukuro obi (formal obi) for furisode (long-sleeved kimono). It features a checkered pattern in light blue, pale gold, and dark gold. The spaces between the checks have a sayagata (key fret) pattern. The lining is silver with glitter. The material is likely silk, but this is uncertain. As this is a soft obi without a core, it allows for complex and elaborate variations in the furisode obi knot. Width: 31cm, Length: 440cm
