Vintage Unused Silk Crepe Zentsu Reversible Fukuro Obi, Fully Patterned on Both Sides, Chirimen Obi,
Fukuro Obi is less formal than Maru Obi. It is constructed by sewing the patterned front fabric to a 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 crepe Zentsu Obi came from a relative. It is reversible, with fully patterned fabric on both sides. It may be worn with kimono and is also suitable for use as a bed runner, table runner, or wall hanging.
