古いシミなので、クリーニングでも完全に落とすのは難しいかもしれません。
ふるいしみなので、クリーニングでもかんぜんにおとすのはむずかしいかもしれません。
Since it's an old stain, it might be difficult to remove completely even with professional dry cleaning.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently point to the stained area with an open hand, keeping a safe distance from the fabric.
Do not rub or try to scratch the stain with your fingernails, as silk and vintage fabrics are extremely delicate.
