Both items are new and unopened. The paper tape wrapped around the tenugui (hand towel) is discolored (photo 11). - Samurai Chopsticks / Kotobukiya Modeled after Japanese swords. The chopstick rest is in the shape of a family crest-inscribed sword stand. - Busho Tenugui (Warrior Hand Towel) / Yueniya x Ittenya, Nozawa Sakuzo Store Made in Japan Due to the size being just at the limit, the packaging will be simple. If you are concerned about the chopstick box being crushed, I can ship via Rakuraku Takkyubin (Yamato Transport) for an additional 500 yen, so please comment before purchasing.
