Description: Design detailThis antique Nagoya obi features a striking dragon design in gold and silver on a black fabric. Complemented by patterns of octopuses and Seigaiha (waves pattern), this obi may symbolize a water dragon. Its intricate design and quality make it a unique and elegant choice for traditional Japanese attire. This obi can be used not only as a traditional belt for kimono but also as a stylish table center or wall decoration, adding a touch of elegance to any interior. The Nagoya obi is characterized by its folded end, allowing for the easy tying of the traditional taiko musubi knot with a shorter length of obi. The position of the fold can vary depending on the person who commissioned the Nagoya obi's tailoring. Every vintage obi-belt is one of a kind and represent the finest in Japanese craftsmanship and creativity.
