ca. mid Twentieth century
110" x 6 1/2", 280 cm x 16 cm

A very tightly woven sakiori obi with a bone colored cotton warp.  This obi is in wonderful condition with the exception of one tiny hole, the size of a pinhead: the selvedge is intact and the weaving is very strong and able.  Cotton weft against the cotton warp.

Note the streaks of blue in the weft, which appear to be shredded blue on white kasuri fabric.

Lovely.
