This is an obijime (obi cord). I imagine it's for summer. It's probably silk. I don't think it's been used much. I apologize that I can't be more specific. - Fringes: Yes - Color: Orange系 (orange-based) × Gold - Condition: While there are no noticeable stains or fraying, please understand that this is a used item due to home storage. I am selling this to organize my collection of Japanese clothing.
