This is an obiage (decorative sash) from Sanbi, Arakawa Masujiro Shoten. It's a deep crimson with gray shibori (tie-dye) accents, and I used it with casual black Oshima Tsumugi silk. The color is a beautiful crimson, just like in the first image. I stored it in a cedar chest at home after using it a few times. I couldn't find any noticeable stains, scratches, or spots, but please understand that I may have overlooked something. ★Please refrain from purchasing if you are seeking perfection or are overly concerned about details. ★Returns are not accepted after purchase. ★I will not respond to excessive price reductions. ★Please note that I may delete the listing without prior notice.
