WHAT IS A FUKURO OBI?

Today when you think of a standard traditional formal style obi, you’re probably thinking of a Fukuro Obi. Fukuro Obi are made from one strip of decorated fabric – usually silk – with another plainer lining for the inside. Written 袋帯, it means bag belt, because of the way it is sewn in two parts.
For formal occasions, you would normally wear a fukuro obi, although some can be casual too.

Fukuro obi is beautifully hung as a wall tapestry and will amaze you with the energy and happiness it brings to your home.
