Antique fukuro obi☆ This is a beautiful obi with a classic design featuring phoenixes and other motifs on a gold base. The blurry photos are due to the photography; there are no issues with the obi itself. The gold on both ends is peeling, revealing the base fabric. Please check the photos. I think it would be a gorgeous table center or wall hanging. I want many people to experience the best of Japanese culture, so I am offering this at a bargain price! ⚫︎ I am an amateur, so I may not be able to answer questions about the product. ⚫︎ As this is an antique item, I hope you will enjoy it as a fine piece of old Japan. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect item or are overly concerned about details. ⚫︎ As this item has been stored for a long time, there may be stains. Please handle cleaning yourself. ⚫︎ I have tried to include images that are as close to the actual color as possible, but the color may differ slightly from the actual item. ⚫︎ I am selling items I have collected as a personal hobby, so I do not have any stock. ⚫︎ I have priced the obi at the lowest possible price, so I am not offering any further discounts.
