See below for more about nagoya obi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDusty rose pink and silvery florals give this vintage obi fabric a wonderfully subdued, romantic look. The woven design sends an irregular ribbon-like band across the mauve background, edged in charcoal gray and brown and filled with stylized blossoms and buds in rose, pale silver, and soft beige. The abstract floral forms and jagged dark borders give the traditional design an unexpectedly modern quality, while the subtle woven texture adds movement to the solid rose areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eExposed floating threads on the reverse reveal the construction of the multicolored woven motifs.  The gold seal indicates this item was made by a weaver in the Nishijin Textile Association.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSigns of age are present, including some mottling and uneven coloration across the solid areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis bolt is laid out in the traditional nagoya obi format: 68\" of plain fabric that would be the backside of the obi, followed by an 8\" decorative section (bow), 26\" plain fabric, another 9\" decorative section, and finishing with another 65\" of plain fabric.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe fabric is a thick weave that is both pliable and sturdy – perfect for being tied into an elaborate bow at the back of a kimono, and just a perfect as table or wall décor.
