Nagoya Obi Nagoya Construction Six-panel pattern The material is presumed to be pure silk, but it is not certain. Length: Approximately 332 cm Width: Approximately 30 cm Please excuse minor errors. This is a crepe dyed Nagoya obi with a striking, unique sense of color and bold composition. The elegantly depicted large peonies and camellias, along with the modern leaf design accented with kanoko (fawn spots) patterns, are impressive. The reddish-brown (brick-colored) end of the obi sharpens the overall look, adding a sophisticated and chic nuance to the wearer's back. This is an unused item with the basting threads still attached. Due to long-term storage (aging), there is fading and unevenness in the plain areas, bleeding of the dye, and some areas that appear to be a beige-like light soiling. From a distance, these blend into the characteristic texture of stencil dyeing and are difficult to discern, but it is ideal for those who can appreciate the charm of a vintage item or prefer a "worn-in" style. Pairs well with Tsumugi, Komon, and cotton kimonos. Suitable for dinner parties, theater outings, art appreciation, casual gatherings, lessons, etc. When paired with a simple Tsumugi or plain kimono, the unique pattern of the obi becomes the focal point, creating a highly stylish coordination. We strive to make the images as close to the actual color as possible, but there may be slight differences due to monitor settings and lighting conditions. Please be aware that due to long-term storage, there may be some residual storage odor. If this is a concern, please air it out in the shade or have it professionally cleaned. For wrinkles, please use a pressing cloth and a medium-temperature iron. The undulations in the fabric will lessen with wear. The item will be shipped compactly packed. If the obi is difficult to fold for packing, the folding method may be altered.
