Here are three types of ribbons: The brown ribbon has beige strings at the ends that can be pulled to gather the ribbon. It's hardly been used. The Aoyama ribbon is a polyester ribbon that looks like lace. It's sturdy, making it easy to create ribbons with. The case has handwritten marks and some scratches from removing stickers. The ribbons themselves are in good condition. I have other ribbons for sale as well. I will combine shipping. Due to the thickness, it will be shipped via courier. Thank you.
