< Maru-Obi (Full width) >

Obi - A sash worn with a kimono.

There are various types of obi. Kimonos range from casual cotton kimonos to wedding kimonos and kimonos worn in formal special occasions.
Therefore, there are several types of obi too, depending on the type of kimono and the occasion.

The Maru-obi is the highest grade obi. The design is not only where the pattern of the obi can be seen, Maru-obi is doubled and the front and back are all made of gorgeous fabrics. It is about 4 meters (13 feet) long.

Others, such as the Nagoya-obi and the Fukuro-obi, have a design only on a part of the whole that can be seen on the outside when the obi is tied.

There are few opportunities in Japan to tighten such a Maru-obi today.
The craftsmanship of antiques, unique designs and textures are never found in mass-produced modern products.

It can be used for interiors, and it is 4m long on one side and 8m on the front and back, it can be used as a crafting material. (I made a yoga mat bags with these!)

Sometimes remake from a Maru-obi to a Hanhaba-obi. Such Hanhaba-obi have designs on both sides. The ones made as Hanhaba-obi from the beginning are often reversible and not the same design.
