古いシミなので、クリーニングでも完全には落ちない可能性が高いですね。
ふるいしみなので、くりーにんぐでもかんぜんにはおちないかのうせいがたかいですね。
Since it is an old stain, there is a high possibility that it won't come out completely, even with professional cleaning.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently point to the specific stain on the kimono without touching it with dirty hands or fingernails.
Avoid pulling or rubbing the delicate silk of vintage kimonos forcefully when inspecting stains, as it can damage the ancient fibers.
