Japanese Mid-Century Obi

$575.00

Superb example of a c. 1970s Obi. The obi is beautifully woven with multi-colored florals reserves and interlaced cherry blossoms. The reserves are delineated by woven metallic silver and gold threads against a black silk background. The obi is in overall very good condition. This textile would make a striking table runner, headboard--even an over-mantle piece of art. As we know, all rooms need a touch of black (or red) and this vibrant textile would fulfill that need.
