KIMONO SET-OBI MAKURA, ITA, HIMO, KORIN BELT, ERI SHIN

Do you wear kimono? I've had lots of requests for a set of kimono accessories and have found a great source for them here in Kyoto, so I can offer them here all together, available for instant purchase at a great price, and with free insured airmail from Kyoto to your door, anywhere in the world! For this 8 piece set I've chosen high quality items that look and feel nice and are sure to be used and appreciated every time you wear your kimono. Your set will include:

OBI ITA-the stiff belt inserted between the obi and kimono to keep both from getting wrinkled. It has a handy strap with metal fasteners to tie it with. The exact design will vary, but yours will be the same shade of pink as the one listed, to match the makura, and the motif will be a lovely floral made to compliment the makura beautifully.

OBI MAKURA-makura means pillow in japanese, and this obi pillow is inserted into the obi as you're tying it to help give it shape and form. It comes with light gauze ties. A simple but incredibly useful accessory. And as with the ita, these are beautiful as well as functional, featuring a cascade oif Kiku' mums, on a fabric that feels great to the touch.

KORIN BELT-elastic with plastic clips on both ends, it holds your kimono in place when you're wearing it. 21.5" long, expands to about 40".

KOSHI HIMO-Koshi means waist in Japanese, and himo is string or belt. Koshi himo is the first belt tied around your kimono to hold it in place after you've gathered it at the waist to adjust the length to adjust the length. The excess fabric falls over it. You'll get THREE of them. It's a shame that they, like the rest of the set aren't visible when worn, because these 100% silk himo are a pleasure to touch and behold, tie dyed in the traditional way using the shibori technique, that produces a wonderful puckered texture, as well as vibrant hues. A generous 86" long. Yours may be different colors at the tips than the assortment shown.

ERI SHIN-The eri shin is the reinforcing strip that makes your kimono collar stiff, giving them their distinctive look when worn. This set includes two, made of a strong yet flexible material for years of use.

This set is a great combination of quality, elegance and value, and is made of strong yet lightweight materials that won't weigh your ensemble down, while making it so much easier to put on and wear. I'll airmail your set within 48 hours of payment, often within the same day. It should get to you in about a week, ready to enjoy. In case you don't need everything in this set, these items are also available separately in my store.
