This is a gorgeous ceremonial hanging garment for a baby's first shrine visit, featuring gold and silver embroidered hawks. The upper part of the kimono is a pale blue, and the hem is blue. There are no noticeable stains. There are three small dots, but it's unclear whether they are part of the adjacent pine tree pattern or actual stains, even upon close inspection. Please check the last photo. Personally, I don't find them very noticeable, but... I think it will be fine for taking photos. I highly recommend it. m(_ _)m
