I purchased this new and used it on special occasions. The gold embroidery of the hawk made it photogenic depending on the lighting. During a visit to a shrine, a stranger complimented me, saying it was a lovely ceremonial kimono. We kept it on hand so we could use it whenever it was convenient, and I'm glad we had it for the long term. We used it after birth, at 0 years old, 3 years old, 5 years old, and 7 years old. Each time it was used, it was sent for kimono cleaning and stored with storage agents. The navy silk thread used for the koshiage (waist adjustment) and kataage (shoulder adjustment) is also included. There are faint stains on the back and collar of the long undergarment, so please check photo 13. Having this one item helped us reduce costs for costumes and commemorative photos up to the age of 5. As there are no noticeable scratches or stains on the kimono, it is listed as "no noticeable scratches or stains." As there is no family crest, it is possible to have one added by a specialist in the future. It will be placed in the original box and then packaged for shipping.
