古いシミなので、専門のシミ抜きに出さ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にださないとむずかしいかもしれません。
Since it is an old stain, it might be difficult to remove unless you take it to a specialized Japanese stain removal service.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently hold the fabric and point to the stained spot with a flat open hand.
Do not rub or pull the vintage silk fabric forcefully while examining the stain, as it can damage the delicate fibers.
