Thank you for viewing. I chose "red" to make a statement at a Christmas party. The obiage (stole) is made of crepe fabric with a shibori (tie-dye) process and features embroidery of flowing water and small flowers. It's wonderfully luxurious. There is a slight thread pull. The obijime (cord) also has a stylish design in red and pink. I don't see any particular flaws, but please consider that this item has been stored in a chest of drawers. Please check the size by referring to the images with the measuring tape. Obiage (stole) and Obijime (cord) I am unable to respond on Thursdays and evenings/nights m(_ _)m
