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 textured shibori give this vintage obiage and obijime set a delicate, romantic look with gentle retro charm. The obiage is a cute peachy orange-pink color with an overall shibori pattern - all with a tight pucker for the full main section.  The obijime is a twisted braid of 5 different colored cords that goes well with the obiage.

Obiage Size: Approximately 48" long and 6-12" 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 55"

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.
