I remade a raincoat. It has a striped pattern and a glossy, subdued fabric. Water spilled from the iron rolled off. I think it's water-repellent. There are some creases that couldn't be removed. The lining is a plain, unpatterned kimono fabric with a family crest, purchased from a recycle shop. The photo shows a Tsugaru shamisen inside. The shamisen is not included. Materials: Outer fabric: Judging from the smell and ash residue when burned, I believe it's silk. Lining: Silk This is handmade by an amateur. Please be aware of this. The following are personal thoughts... When the shamisen rests, the sound becomes muffled, but I feel it produces a better sound the more it's played. However, when stored in silk long bags and body bags, I feel it produces a good sound from the first strike. (*^^*)
