This beautiful vintage obijime is in the shape of a round braid and has strands of white, mint green, and a metallic colored thread that has aged. Obijime are a decorative cord worn atop of women's Japanese kimono, specifically atop the obi. Koshihimo and obijime are two different things. Obijime are not the cords that tie a kimono on, koshihimo tie a kimono on.
 
The metallic color of this obijime does not appear to be produced with a low-quality plastic, but rather might be a thread foiled with a material.
 
Obijime Condition:  B+ gently used, in nice condition ready to wear. 
Obijime Total Length (including tassels): 59 in 
Obijime Width: .25 in
