Item #21985 - Obi (Fukuro)
description
This is a beautiful vintage Japanese fukuro obi. It is richly woven with metallic threads and silk threads and features Japanese floral motifs. The background colour is a very deep gold silk with woven various shades of gold and other silk threads throughout. Fukuro obis are traditionally 70% covered with patterns and the reverse is usually plain or unpatterned. This obi is 70% patterned as shown in the photos and the remainder is an old gold non-metallic silk. The reverse is a plain old gold coloured silk. This obi would look terrific as a wall hanging, a table runner or across the end of a bed.
