This item has been used, so it's not brand new and pristine white, but it has been washed and cleaned. There are no noticeable stains or dirt. If you understand that this is a used item and are okay with some wear and tear, please consider this cute item. I bought it at a department store because Miffy's face is cute and the Liberty-style clothes are fashionable. I was healed by the cute rattle and the space it created, taking photos of my child with it (though they hardly held it, I mostly just kept it nearby). If you'd like to continue to cherish it, please consider purchasing it. ^_^
