This is a black obi with a bamboo pattern. The gold bamboo leaves shimmer differently depending on the light, giving it a rich expression. I'm not very knowledgeable about kimonos, so I'm not sure, but it's an old obi, probably a fukuro obi (formal obi). However, it doesn't seem to have the stiff core that modern fukuro obis usually have. It's a soft, floppy, thin, and light obi. The black color with gold bamboo pattern gives it a dignified feel, but because it's soft, it seems like a stylish obi that could be worn casually in everyday life. Measurements are approximate, as I am an amateur: Total length: 3.60m Plain, unpatterned section: 1.23m Width: 31cm ************* This item has been stored at home for a long time and is old.
