This is the hip scarf I bought when I first started learning belly dance. It has been stored at home for many years. There is some discoloration and loss of coins due to aging, but it is in relatively good condition and can be used without any problems. I am offering it for sale so that you can use it for your own practice wear, for remaking, or as materials, etc., as you wish. Please understand that, being a foreign product, there may be some fraying of the original threads and some areas with less-than-perfect stitching, in addition to the aging. I have one cat. I am very careful to prevent cat hair from getting in, but please be aware of this if you have allergies or are concerned. Currently, I am storing the item at a location other than my home, so it may take more than a week to ship depending on the timing. Shipping will be done compactly folded and with simple packaging. I strive to provide courteous service. I apologize for the inconvenience, but please also check my profile. Thank you.
