Purchased in February 2024 at Accessory Ohashi. Used for about half a day on my wedding day. It was so sparkly and cute! From a layman's perspective, there is no deterioration or discoloration. It will be shipped in a ziplock bag, wrapped in bubble wrap. Please check the images for the shipping condition and how it looks when worn. Bulk sales are also possible! Please feel free to contact me (^-^)
