A small group of cranes are foraging in a pine forest, while another attempts to land, their ivory wing feathers contrasting with the browns and light caramel tones chosen for the pine trees.
These two design elements create quite an active picture in this serene forest setting.
The represented wish for the wearer is undoubtedly for a long life with good fortune, making this obi a well chosen gift for others, or yourself!
The woven patterns richly decorate both sides of the obi.
