This item is made from a disassembled and washed vintage silk kimono. It's easy to tie, eliminating the need to fold an obiage, and its shorter length allows it to sit neatly on the obi. It comes with a rubber band to secure the obiage. There's a space in the middle to insert an obimakura (obi pillow). See other obiage items here → #KyokorinObiage #KyokorinKimonoRemake Photos 2 and 3 show an 8cm x 20cm obimakura inserted for reference. Photos 4 and 5 show a 9cm x 25cm obimakura inserted for reference. The obimakura is not included; please use your own. There is a 5cm opening, 3cm from the opening, where gauze can be threaded through. This has been made slightly wider. It can also be used with a hanhaba obi (half-width obi) or Ginza Musubi (Ginza knot) even without an obimakura. Overall length: Approximately 8cm x 150cm Open middle section: Approximately 16cm x approximately 30cm 22mm covered buttons Please understand that this is a kimono remake item. I try to use the cleanest parts possible, but as it is vintage fabric, there may be creases, wrinkles, stains, discoloration, and fading. I make each item carefully, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about any imperfections. Instant purchase is welcome. Kimono Remake, Kimono Accessories
