This is a casual han obi. Learn more about this type of kimono below.

Sleek, restrained, and quietly expressive, this black silk han obi carries woven kanji and seal-like motifs as the ends that resemble an artisan signature or commemorative inscription. The tone-on-tone weave allows the script to reveal itself only when the light catches it, creating a refined interplay between matte depth and satin sheen.

"Han" means "half" in Japanese. A han obi is a shorter, narrower obi traditionally worn with casual kimono or yukata, especially in warmer seasons. They are often easy to tie and feature playful or artistic designs for relaxed, everyday styling rather than formal occasions.
