This item has been stored in a closet for a long time. It is quite old. Although it is new and unused, there are considerable stains, dirt, and discoloration due to aging. It is quite large, so I have not inspected the entire contents. There may be tears. The gourd's cord hardware has rust. I hope that those who understand the aging deterioration will purchase it for remaking purposes. I will fold it compactly and ship it using recycled packing materials. Please refrain from purchasing if you are nervous or if you are looking for perfection.
