Characteristics and condition of Fukuro Obi | Used and recycled Fukuro Obi

This is a fukuro obi (sash) made by Tei Kobo, recommended for casual wear.

The pattern of flowers and birds is woven on a purple (light purple) background (see the Definitive Japanese Color Dictionary). The calm and gentle color scheme is very appealing.

Weaving studio Kanae is a manufacturer in Nishijin, Kyoto that mainly produces obi (belts) made from vertical brocade.

At Kanae, we believe that the quality of the thread determines the quality of the product, and for the warp threads we use 100% A5 rank Brataku thread, which is said to be the world's finest silk thread.

Speaking of tsutsugi, it slides well vertically and barely moves horizontally. In other words, it is easy to tighten the obi and it is hard to come undone once tied. It is one of the most useful obi for kimono lovers.

One of the characteristics of Keishinki is that its beautiful patterns and colors appear not only on the front but also on the back.

In addition, since there are no threads on the back, the fabric is smooth and you can enjoy the natural texture and luster of silk.

Since it does not use decorative weft threads (weft threads that create patterns), it is light, and because it is a warp weave, it is easy to tighten and does not wrinkle easily.

This calm and elegant Tate Nishiki can be enjoyed in an outfit that easily blends into modern life, from traditional tea ceremonies to modern kimono settings.

You can enjoy coordinating this obi with casual kimonos such as plain-colored, small patterns, and tsumugi.

At 470cm, it is long enough to be worn as a fukuro obi.

I think you will also enjoy decorative knots.

There are no visible stains or dirt, so it is perfectly wearable and can be reused.

The colour is closest to what you see in the overall photo, but it may vary slightly depending on the device you are using.

Please note that there is no quality label, so we do not know the content percentage, etc.
