New, unsewn Nishijin-ori fukuro obi (formal obi). This is a very beautiful fukuro obi that uses the special technique of "issen happyaku kuchi-ori" (1800-count weave) to exquisitely depict the "karakusa hoshoku saikamon" (arabesque and jeweled flower pattern). Issen happyaku kuchi-ori uses many colored threads and is costly, so it is only woven by a limited number of manufacturers. The karakusa hoshoku saikamon is expressed on the obi through the fine weave of issen happyaku ori. How about wearing this for formal occasions? This obi will be delivered after being sewn with a cotton core (Kanto style). It will take about 35 days.
