Obis, or Kimono belts, became an important part of
Japanese clothing in the mid-1700s. Courtesans and entertainers
wore them to great effect, but it wasn’t until a kubuki actor, imitating
a young girl, came onstage with their obi tied in the back that
they became traditional style for all Japanese prople.
The Primitive Obi Clutch starts a new tradition. Made from authentic,
vintage silk obis, carry them whenever you wish to feel a venerated
past connecting with a vibrant future.
The Obi Clutch - $295.
All one-of-a-kind. If ordering by phone please let us choose.
