bought 5 or 6 years ago. It is used and has marks on it where I pinned things or it got scratched. It is a velvety material, not exactly sure…The images of the drop have been photoshopped but it is close to the one still on Kate Backdrops Website *but it’s not the exact one!*. Vacuum sealed, wash when received and hang to dry out or tumble dry. *check kate backdrop for care instructions*
