Here are some more information for Kimono Obi Age:
All because the Japanese Kimono that was traditional clothing for everyone over 300 years ago, had no pockets, the Netsuke pieces highly valued today had only evolved out of an necessity for a need so many years ago. As far back as the 17th Century, the Netsuke was at first created to hold closed small satchels that were worn around the waste area, along with the sash or obi that held the kimono in it's proper position. The satchels were for carrying small objects of need or desire throughout the individual's day. To hold closed the satchel containing their personal belongings, was at first an ojime bead to hold closed the silk string and satchel, but the Netsuke toggle soon came along to also do the job of what the ojime piece had been doing.
These Netsuke toggles very quickly went from a necessary fastener upon the string and satchel or box, to a personally unique artistic piece of exquisite expression. Since adornment with jewelry was not a part of the Japanese culture during this time period, the Netsuke was to become one of the largest parts of openly individual expressiveness to be openly worn, during a time that the reigning empires did not allow most forms in a freedom of expression in any nature. The Netsuke became somewhat of an artistically and individually exception to that rule of control and dictation in societal quiet cohesiveness. This was so to at least experience a form of expressive freedom through the Netsuke toggle personally chosen to be worn upon their clothing.
These small Netsuke items were quickly artistically detailed and refined, to show highly crafted sophistication within every Netsuke piece created. Originally Netsuke was at first made from hard woods and lacquer coated for protection, and some would eventually have silver and gold inlays put upon the detailed areas. Since Netsuke was best done with hard mediums of materials, different types of ceramic were used, ivory from several different animal and mammal species were used, and hard ocean corrals, along with metals of different variations were also used to make Netsuke. All of these are the same materials often used today for making highly detailed traditional Netsuke for collections.
There are truly only five main original formations of Netsuke, and are all one inch tall in approximately, and one inch deep to one inch wide. These five main Netsuke original types are known as sashi, ryusa, katabori, kagamibuta, and manju. The kagamibuta, the ryusa and the manju would be of the slightly variational flattened rounded designs. The katabori are of a three dimensional carving, and there is exquisite characteristic details around around the katabori Netsuke. The sashi Netsuke is recognizable for its length being more emphasized in shape and form.

Do you like Kimono? (kimono maker)?
If you like Kimono. Do you have any preference to what type? What style? what age? what design?
DO you know what the term Kimono means? Do you know any of the other elements of the kimono?
what is a makura? what is an obi age? kori himo?
lol
but really tell me what you like about kimono and anything you think should be changed for the betterment!
thank you very much aya! And kori Himo means temporary cord. its just one of those things you pick up when learning to tie teiko obi and other diffrent ties.
I like all kind of kimono.
"Kimono" means "things to wear" or "things you put on" or even just "clothes" depending on which translation you go with. There are many parts to a kimono, and I don't know all of the names. You can find them by googling.
Makura means pillow. The obi makura is a small pillow or pillow-like thing used on many kinds of obi to make them have the right volume. An obi age is the sash worn above the obi and also helps to hide the obi makura and hold the obi musubi (bow) in place. I don't know what a kori himo is specifically, but there are a lot of different kinds of ties involved in kimono.
I'm not Japanese so I don't really think it's my place to change kimono in any way.
