Thank you for viewing. Packing will be relatively simple, using bubble wrap and corrugated cardboard. Shipping is planned via Sagawa Express, Large Size service, with payment on delivery. *If there is a discrepancy between the shipping cost I provide and the actual cost, it could lead to trouble. Please understand and take responsibility for researching the shipping costs yourself. The size is estimated to be around 240-260 (likely referring to dimensions). Therefore, there is no accident compensation with Rakuraku Mercari Delivery (anonymous shipping). As I have no knowledge of the koto and do not know the details, please make your judgment based on the photos. The white frame parts of the maki-e (lacquer work) are likely plastic. As this is an old item, to prevent any issues, please understand that it is stored at home, is a used item, and has some scratches and stains.
