Year of purchase unknown. I bought it new and used it once or twice at a wedding. After that, it was stored at home. I have adjusted the images to be as close to the actual color as possible. In my subjective opinion, it is a beautiful item, but it is still a used item. Please refrain from purchasing if you do not understand used items or if you are looking for a perfect item. It will be sent by Yu-packet Post Mini in simple packaging.
