This is a brand new, genuine silk Hakata-ori hanhaba obi (half-width belt). It is woven in Hakata, Fukuoka Prefecture, Kyushu. The material is 100% silk, with a width of 15cm and a length of 3.59m. It is perfect for tying with tsumugi and komon kimonos, as well as yukata. Because it is genuine silk, it is less likely to unravel and can be tied securely, and it can be used on both sides. Hakata-ori hanhaba obi are currently experiencing a significant price increase, so please refrain from price negotiations. I was also surprised; the next purchase price was over 15,000 yen.
