Japanese Maru Obi with Gold Embroidered Dragons – Silk Brocade, Taisho to Showa
Located in Fukuoka, JP
A magnificent example of Japanese textile artistry, this vintage maru obi dates from the Taisho to early Showa period (circa 1920–1950). Woven in luxurious silk, it features a richly detailed brocade design with mythological dragons encircled by flames and stylized clouds—symbols of strength, protection, and imperial authority in Japanese culture.
The opulent gold and beige ground is accented with bold tones of red, green, black, and purple, showcasing intricate weaving techniques and vibrant color contrasts. Hexagonal panels with floral motifs in gold and black add structure and visual rhythm to the piece. Measuring 341 cm in length and 32 cm in width, this maru obi was traditionally worn for formal kimono occasions and would have wrapped fully around the waist.
Today, it makes a powerful statement as a display piece—whether mounted as wall art or draped as a textile sculpture—highlighting the beauty and craftsmanship of early 20th-century Japanese weaving...
