I purchased this item from this site. I only tried it on and haven't worn it outside. I don't see any scratches or stains, but there might be something I missed. It has been stored at home, so please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to smells. This is a handmade original piece featuring the original Choju-giga (Animal-Person Caricatures) design on a silk obi fabric. I'm not sure if it's truly silk. *Please read my profile as well. Below is the product description from when I purchased it: [Product Name] Silk Nagoya Obi Remake [Choju-giga] [Color] Ocher [Nagoya Obi Material] Silk [Design] [Choju-giga] [Size] Total Length: Approximately 362cm Tassel Width: Approximately 29.7cm *Please understand that there may be slight variations due to amateur measurements.
