This is a stole that can be worn like a poncho when the buttons are fastened, as shown in the fifth photo. I think it can also be folded and used like a scarf. It's thin but made of warm material. I received it as a gift, but I don't like the color, so I've kept it for several years. I don't remember, but I might have used it a few times as a lap blanket? There don't seem to be any noticeable scratches or stains, but there are fold wrinkles, so please purchase only if you understand that it is a used item. The fold wrinkles can probably be removed with an iron. I will sell it at a reduced price accordingly. It will be folded and delivered in a Yu-Packet Post box.
