This item has been stored at home for a long time, remaining in its original box. The cushioning material was removed for the photos, but will be replaced with new cushioning for shipping. The three sake cups are likely unused (they were still wrapped in cushioning), and the other items are also believed to have been used very little. The inside of the original box has some stains, so the sake set was washed as a precaution. The outside of the original box has sun damage and stains (such as tape residue). Thank you for looking.
