Excellent vintage condition! The fabric of the silk kimono remains bright, clean, and structurally sound with no noticeable staining or major fading. The hand-painted facial features are crisp and clean. The original bottom maker\'s label is fully intact. The unfinished underside of the wooden base shows some standard vintage shelf storage scuffs and an old faint pencil inventory mark as pictured, which does not affect display quality.
