This is a han-eri (collar) that came with a nagajuban (long undergarment) my mother had made at a department store. I was taking it off to replace it with a white han-eri, but it was sewn very finely, and it was difficult to remove. There may be some fine threads remaining that I couldn't remove completely. I apologize, but I will send it as is, so I would appreciate it if you could remove them. It's a lovely, high-quality han-eri with cherry blossom embroidery. How about it for spring? The fabric color is not pure white, but ivory. I wasn't sure how much to price it, so I've listed it quite cheaply. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about details. I will fold it and ship it via Yu-Packet Mini.
