Thank you for viewing. This is an eight-sun Nagoya obi with the rustic charm of saki-ori (slit-weave). With a navy base, the otaiko (back of the obi) and the front (belly) feature beautiful colors such as orange, yellow, red, and green. The lining of the obi is a solid navy color. You can feel the gentle atmosphere and the warmth of the handmade craftsmanship. While saki-ori hanhaba obi (half-width obi) are sometimes seen, Nagoya obi in saki-ori are rarely circulated, making this a rare item. Even hanhaba obi can cost around 180,000 yen. At the time of purchase, I was told it was "beni-bana (safflower) dyed" by Nitta Orimono. (I am not listing it as "Nitta Orimono" because I don't have definite proof, but the yellow and orange colors might be safflower dyed.) ● Size Length: Approximately 115cm for the otaiko pattern section, approximately 240cm for the te (hand) section Width: Approximately 30.5cm ● Condition No noticeable stains or tears. Worn only once and stored at home. ● Features ・Folk craft taste ・Accent colors with a beni-bana (safflower) color-like gradation within the calm colors ・Soft, light, and easy to tie (with a moderate firmness) ・A versatile obi that is easy to match with gray, indigo, and tsumugi (pongee) This obi is easy to match with Gujo tsumugi, Oshima tsumugi, Ryukyu kasuri, etc., expanding the range of your coordination. I will carefully pack and ship it. I would be happy to pass it on to someone who likes it.
