I fell in love with this kimono at a shop in Kyoto and bought it, but I've never worn it. It's been stored in my closet, hanging on a hanger. There may be wrinkles from how it was folded in the shop and from being hung on a hanger. I don't see any stains or fraying. The color is difficult to describe, but I've marked the check in photo 5. I think it's close to the color of the first sample. I don't have much knowledge about proper kimonos, so I may not be able to answer your questions accurately, but thank you for your understanding.
