古いシミなので、専門の染み抜きでないと難しいかもしれません。
ふるいしみなので、せんもんのしみぬきでないとむずかしいかもしれません。
Since it's an old stain, it might be difficult to remove unless you take it to a specialized stain removal service.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently point to the specific stain while holding the fabric carefully.
Do not try to rub or scratch the stain with your wet finger or cloth on the spot, as it can ruin delicate vintage silk.
