"Dramatica" Nagoya
Obi - $79 |
|
ITEM NUMBER: 0408Obi8 |
|
Our
favorite color combination comes together in this geometric
and floral beauty with strong bands of red bordering a deep teal
floral inside overlaping circles.
Each floral is outlined in red, too! A one yard stretch of
plain teal on the belt
portion (which would be hidden when the obi is worn) adds
another dramatic element to the obi when it is displayed. A small
slight blemish on
the belt portion, basting entact in some places. |

Unusual black background on this obi that

"Mysterious" Nagoya
Obi - $50 |
|
ITEM NUMBER: 0107Obi3 |
|
We hesitate to try and identify
this floral but no doubt someone will be familiar with it. A
pine cone style seed
pod in a tulip shape, enveloped by long leaves...a conversation
piece at least! A soft silk with a stiff lining, and the image
appears only at the wide
bow section and on both sides of the center belt
section. Wild color scheme - dark reddish orange on a pale crayon
orange. Some slight blemishing,
but still quite wearable. |

"Tangerine Dream"
Nagoya Obi - $75 |
|
ITEM NUMBER: 0107Obi7 |
|
Strikingly
hot combination of a bright, wide, lime green brushstrokes
against a tangerine
background, with gold
and a band of white to add balance and interest. This is
a fabulous obi with just enough design to compliment a patterned
kimono, but can also hold its own with a single colored kimono.
The pattern appears only
at the wide bow section and on either side of the center belt
section. |
