Rose Obi Clasp with Shell and Paulownia Box
This is a shell rose obi clasp.
I purchased it at an antique shop at the end of March. I was drawn to its clean design, which, despite being antique, doesn't feel old-fashioned. It appears to have been stored in a paulownia box, and the obi clasp shows almost no signs of use. A single pearl adorns the center of the rose.
Unfortunately, it doesn't suit my style and I don't foresee myself using it, so I am listing it without having used it.
I paired it with a kosode and a half-width obi from Kimono Modern. It would also look lovely with a yukata.
The metal fitting is attached at a slightly crooked angle from when I purchased it. Also, as is common with antique obi clasps, a 3-bu cord will not pass through. I do not own a 2-bu cord, so I have not tried to thread one. I apologize, but please be aware of this. (You may find helpful information on YouTube about how to secure obi cords that don't fit by using thin flat elastic.)
- Material: Shell
- Size: 5 x 3.5 cm
- Accessories: Paulownia box
- Color: Milky white
- Design: Rose shape
I will ship via Yu-Packet Post. Please read my profile before purchasing.
