This is an obi締め (decorative sash tie) from my grandmother's collection. It's a piece from Ota Tozaburo, who specializes in plant-dyed items from Omi. Photo 8 shows that because this is a "Tozaburo" obi締め, it can hold this shape without falling over. It incorporates red-violet, blue, dark navy, rust, and gold. I hope you can use it as an accent color with soft fabrics or紬 (pongee) kimono. The length is about 156 cm. The cardboard backing in the box and the paper with the "Tozaburo" mark show signs of aging. If you don't need the box, I will deduct 500 yen. Please contact me before purchasing. I think it's beautiful, but please forgive me if I've overlooked anything. I look forward to hearing from those who understand that this item has been stored at home for a long time.
