古い着物なので、完全に落とすのは難しいかもしれませんね。
ふるいきものなので、かんぜんにおとすのはむずかしいかもしれませんね。
Since it is a vintage kimono, it might be difficult to remove it completely.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently and carefully point to the stained spot on the fabric with one open hand without pulling or stretching the garment.
Do not aggressively demand discounts due to stains or flaws, as vintage items and antique kimonos in Japan are traditionally sold as-is ('genjo-watashi').
