Vintage Unused Silk Fukuro Obi, Japanese Kimono Sash Belt, Traditional Patterns, Real Gold, Unused,
Fukuro Obi is less formal than Maru Obi. It is constructed by sewing the patterned front fabric to a plain backing. A standard Rokutsu Fukuro Obi has patterned brocade across approximately 60% of the front, with the remaining portion left plain. A Zentsu Fukuro Obi is patterned across the full front, while a Maru Obi is patterned on both sides.
This Kurotomesode Fukuro Obi came from a relative, who purchased it for her Kurotomesode. It is woven in silk with double-layer 24K real gold foil thread and features traditional Japanese motifs. It may be worn with kimono and is also suitable for use as a bed runner, table runner, or wall hanging.
