"Ryuma" Fukuro Obi
"Ryuma" Fukuro Obi
Mythical Creature
- Ships from NY
- One-of-a-kind
- Sourced from Japan
This listing is for a traditional fukuro style obi that features an ornate emblem of florals with a mythical Japanese creature we think to be ryuma - part horse, part dragon. Based on a similar Chinese creature (longma), ryuuma represents power, strength and good fortune.
The weaving is complicated and elaborate, creating the imagery in a mix of colors that suggests masterful weaving. The background is a yummy chocolate brown with woven accents of blue, tan, and black.
This is a fukuro obi - wide for the entire length, plain on the backside and a patterned design only on the front. There is a one yard "blank" section on the front, as is common with contemporary fukuro obi, where some cost can be saved by leaving it blank where the first wrap layer of the belt portion occurs, since it doesn't show to the public.
See the videos below to learn about the different styles of obi as well as ways to use them in your decor.
