For Rafi-sama
I put effort into the lining.
The outer fabric is an unused, solid-colored kimono (with crests) that I found at a second-hand shop. It's a very elegant color, described as kuro-kurenai, which is a deep purple. It's made of pure silk chirimen (crepe fabric).
The lining of the long bag is from a man's nagajuban (under-kimono) also found at a second-hand shop. It's pure silk. I love the pattern. Since I couldn't get a long piece, I had to piece it together. That's why I've set the price a little lower.
The lining of the body bag is from the hachikake (lower hem lining) of another kimono.
Overall, there are some stitch marks and fold lines. I believe there are very few stains.
The photos show it with a Tsugaru shamisen inside. The shamisen is not included.
I've included a small accessory pouch.

My personal opinion...
When a shamisen is left idle, the sound can become muffled, but I feel it produces a good sound as it's played more. However, I feel that storing it in a pure silk long bag and body bag allows it to produce a good sound from the very first strike. (*^^*)
