Vintage Japanese Nagoya Obi / Salmon Rose Tsumugi Silk / Kimono Sash Belt

Japanese Nagoya Obi – Japanese Kimono sash | Traditional Kimono Accessory | Handmade Textile Art

A warm and quietly beautiful vintage Nagoya obi in a rich salmon-rose ground, woven from tsumugi (pongee) silk with the characteristic slubbed texture that gives the fabric its relaxed, artisanal character. Set against this soft blush tone are scattered diamond-shaped medallions worked in a dense, tapestry-like weave — each one filled with intricate floral arabesque designs in deep rose, burgundy, olive green, and soft gold. The effect is both intimate and luxurious, like a garden glimpsed through lattice.

✦ Styling notes
The tsumugi weave makes this obi most at home with casual and semi-formal kimono — particularly tsumugi, komon, or iromuji styles. The warm rose tone pairs beautifully with neutral, grey, navy, or warm earth-toned kimono. A lovely choice for autumn or spring casual outings, tea gatherings, or kimono enthusiasts building a versatile obi collection.
