This item was purchased along with Hina dolls at the Osaka Kyuhodo Main Store. The floral pattern and embroidered balls are beautiful. It was displayed for only about two weeks, and has been stored at home since then. There are no noticeable stains, and it's like new and clean. It will be shipped in its original box. If you don't need the box or stand, I think I can offer a discount on the shipping cost, so please let me know in the comments.
