Made from a komon fabric purchased at a recycle shop. It has a chic wave pattern. The colors haven't photographed well, but the fifth or seventh photo is the closest. The lining of the long bag is white fabric also purchased as fabric. It has a very beautiful woven crane pattern. It's so beautiful that you'll smile every time you open and close it. The body bag is made from the lining of another kimono. The photos show a Tsugaru shamisen inside. The shamisen is not included. Materials: Outer fabric: Silk (Komon) Lining: Long bag - Silk (white fabric) Body bag - Unknown (lining of a visiting kimono) Handmade by an amateur. Please be aware of this. The following are personal thoughts... The shamisen's sound becomes muffled when it rests, but I feel it gives a good sound as you play it more. However, I feel that if you store it in a silk long bag and body bag, it will give a good sound from the first strike. (*^^)
