Adorned with 亀甲文様 (Kikkō Mon’yō) – hexagons representing tortoise shell, and 雲 (kumo) – flowing clouds, on a muted silver, gold and cream background, this vintage obi belt exudes refined and understated beauty and elegance.

The appeal of this obi lies in its vivid depiction of a mountain landscape, glowing in the warm, vibrant hues of a sunset. The trees on the mountain are rendered in shades of gold, creating a visually stunning and captivating scene.

While the diamond pattern might appear simple, its origins run deep. The pattern is inspired by the leaves and fruit of the water chestnut, an aquatic plant known for its vitality,  connoting prosperity for future generations and good health.
