I don't know the details, but it's new and unused, and has been stored with the basting threads still in place. There is a mothball-like odor from long-term home storage. There are also stains from storage. Please check the images. This is a cute handmade haori (kimono jacket) made by my mother. I hope that those who love kimonos will enjoy it, repurpose it, or find some use for it. I will fold it up small for packaging. Please understand that there may be fold creases, and consider this before purchasing.
