This is not a whole Obi

A Beautiful small panel from a High Quality Vintage Japanese Fukuro Obi.

This is a small piece of very high quality vintage silk from a Japanese Fukuro Obi, a formal sash worn by women at wedding or other ceremonies.

It has a beautiful figurative "Tale of Genji with Junihitoe Princess" scenes on a rich shimmery, metallic pale gold base.

The silk is in excellent condition with just some creases (see detail photos) from storage and wear. As it comes from the folded section of the Obi it has a slight crease down the middle.

I have not ironed this piece.

Measurement: approx 11.5ins wide by 8ins long

You could use it to make a table runner, wall hangings, bags, centerpieces of patchwork, cushions or any other craft or quilting project.
