This is a beautiful crepe Nagoya obi with a white background and an orange arabesque pattern. It's a pre-tied type of obi. There's a string attached to the hand portion. Wrap that around the body, then insert the tare (dangling part) and tie the obi pillow yourself. The tesaki (hand tip) is attached to the tare, so you insert it to use. I think you wrap the hand so the tied string is visible in front, then insert the tare and turn it around. There's a small stain as shown in the last photo, but it won't be visible if you wrap that side against your body. Please note that there may be color variations depending on your monitor and environment. Also, as this is a recycled item, there may be minor overlooked stains or storage odors.
