Celestial Floral Circles of Gold FUKURO OBI Upon Black
This sophisticated, yet bold fukuro obi will be sure to impress as you pair it with an equally beautiful kimono.
Atop crisp black, large circles and stylized pine boughs of glistening gold display floral motifs of chrysanthemums. In the center, petals of bright blue, orange and green seem to shine like the sun, surrounded by gold and silver.
This fukuro obi is patterned on the exposed front, back and side panels.
