This listing is for two beautifully coordinated obi accessories: an obiage (a scarf-like sash that peeks out from the top of a formally tied obi) and an obijime (a woven, decorative cord that wraps around the center of the obi, adding the final touch).

Soft pink tones and flowing textures give this vintage obiage and obijime set a graceful, romantic look. The obiage features a bending grass jacquard with floral shibori accents that create layered movement and delicate texture across the silk. The pale pink flat weave obijime adds an elegant finishing touch that would pair beautifully with spring kimono, pastel iromuji, or soft floral komon for daytime gatherings or tea events.

Obiage Size: Approximately 60" long and 6-11" wide

The measurements of the obiage are taken with the puckered shibori texture intact, and both the length and width would increase if the fabric were ironed flat.

Obijime Length: Approximately 56"

The last photos show examples of traditional kimono styling and modern fashion inspiration - not this exact set. Beyond wearing them with kimono and obi, the obiage can be styled as a scarf or casual fabric sash while the obijime makes a unique belt or necklace for a creative Japanique-inspired look.
