This listing is for a traditional fukuro style obi. 

Invite instant elegance into your home with this sweeping fukuro obi, where gliding arcs of silver, soft pink, and brilliant crimson red mimic the movement of wings in winter air. Look closely to see the stylized peacocks in a serene, almost sculptural elegance while the shimmering metallic threads catch the light beautifully.

The backside is a bright red while the blank section on the front (see explanation below) is a solid cream.

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. If you're interested in purchasing an obi to display, consider our 30" display rods.
