The colors of autumn come alive in this sparkling fukuro obi.
Upon a bed of crisp black, decorative folding fans of luminous gold weave display their dramatic scenes. Cranes twinkle in metallic thread as clouds of gold and bright orange float with chrysanthemums and paulownia.
This fukuro obi is patterned on the exposed front, back and side panels.
