Ryūson Bijutsu Orimono (Ryūson Art Weaving) - Meibutsu-gire (Famous Textiles) - Kanjin Shūmon (Korean Benevolence Embroidery Pattern) Purchased for tea ceremony use. I didn't use it much because it seemed like it would overlap with someone else's furukusa (tea ceremony silk cloth). There are fold creases. By the way, the same obi (sash) was listed for 39,800 yen on a certain website. I think it's soft and easy to tie. Perfect for everyday use and casual outfits. There are tatami creases, so I've priced it at a bargain. Please consider it ^_^ About Ryūson Bijutsu Orimono: Established the field of "art textiles" by researching and restoring ancient textiles. Meibutsu-gire (Famous Textiles) - Kanjin Shūmon (Korean Benevolence Embroidery Pattern) Explanation: The original of this brocade uses three colors: reddish-brown, yellow, and light brown, and indigo stripes on a red-brown background, with a cloud pattern and a dragon on the left and a tiger on the right. The characters "Kanjin Shūmon Kōsha Shison Mukyoku" (Korean Benevolence Embroidery Pattern, May the Descendants Be Limitless) are woven in white in a horizontal line. This is an excellent warp brocade from the Han dynasty, discovered by Dr. Stein, a British orientalist, in Loulan. Our company restored this brocade in the late Taisho era, but this time, based on the original colors, we have made slight changes to the arrangement of the characters, excluding the tiger, to create a refined pattern. The structure is warp brocade, the same as the original, and it reproduces a high-class beauty. - Brand: Ryūson - Material: 100% silk - Size: Approximately 428-431 cm (measured by an amateur, measured 3 times) - Style: Hiraki Nagoya Obi (Open Nagoya Obi) Thank you for viewing.
