Hakata Geometric Stripe NARROW OBI in Grape Purple
This narrow obi is a wonderful alternative to a wide obi, with an informal design and smaller width. Wear it with a lighter kimono, yukata or Western style.
This earthy narrow obi is quite traditional in its design of woven Hakata stripes. The white motifs are especially crisp against this warm shade of purple, which sparkles with damask patterning in the middle.
