Sanshin Dongmaki (Body Wrap) - Okinawa Folk Song - Noborikawa Style - Teegar

This is likely a hard-to-find item.
Furthermore, as it is unused, I believe it is quite rare.

Although it is unused, it has been stored at home for approximately 25 years, so I have selected Used, but in very good condition for the item's condition.

Please check the images.
You can see areas on the blue part that appear to be faded due to age, but this is in the center (where the hole is made to thread the tailpiece). I believe it will be less noticeable if you actually use it.
Also, on the back side, there are wrinkles. It is possible that the adhesive or glue inside the lining, which may be like a pattern, is peeling off.
Overall, I also feel that the finishing condition is not expertly done.

Nowadays, the production and business level of sanshin *ti-gaa* (body wraps) has produced wonderful products through precise measurements, improved sewing techniques, design, and materials such as leather, real skin, and *minsa* weaving, with careful and delicate work. However, about 30 years ago in Okinawa, it was still in its early stages, and I feel it remained at the level of what is called *te-ge- shigoto* (roughly 80% done, not overly meticulous work).

This item is in this condition.

As this is a personal inspection, there may be other oversights.
