I purchased this as an item for a furisode (long-sleeved kimono), but it's a bit short. It's a very lovely obiage (decorative sash), but there are some areas on both the front and back where the color is faded to white. It doesn't look like a stain, but rather like glue residue. Since it's not around the embroidery, I think it won't be noticeable once tied. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. Thank you. Length: 124cm Width: 19cm
