Woven in Japan with gold metallic threads, this Obi retains its original securing threads (red and white) and has not been opened for use. It can be laid on a dining table as a runner or along a sideboard, where the light catches the brocade differently by the hour.

At approximately 440cm/173in, with a blank space of approximately 100cm/39in in the middle on the front.

The fans, pine tree, chrysanthemum, iris and willow tree on this Obi is centuries-old motif in Japanese design - success, endurance, longevity, strength and adaptability, respectively.

As each Obi is uniquely patterned, no two runners are ever quite the same. This exact piece won't be repeated.

Specifications
  • 440x31cm / 173x12in
  • Gold and silver metallic brocade
  • Decorative front (with apx. 100cm of blank space), plain backing
  • The Obi features a plain, unpatterned section characteristic of its Fukuro Obi construction. As the Obi cannot be opened without disturbing the original securing threads, the condition of the interior cannot be confirmed.
