✨ Vintage Japanese Kyoto Chirimen Fabric Card Holder Case ✨
Condition: EUC (Excellent Used Condition - Includes original box and presentation ribbon)
This elegant card holder is a beautiful example of traditional Japanese functional art. Received as a gift from my wife's students in Japan in 1994, it has been carefully preserved in its original packaging.
