DATING TO THE VICTORIAN 19TH CENTURY
FASHIONED OF A BLACK COTTON VELVET WITH A TWO TONE GOLDEN SILK FLOSS EMBROIDERY WITH BRIGHT SILVER CUT STEEL BEADING THROUGHOUT THE PATTERN.
THE NECKLINE IS TRIMMED IN WOOL LACE THAT IS BACKED IN BLACK SATIN RUFFLES WITH THE BOTTOM EDGE TRIMMED IN JET BEADING AND THE INTERIOR IS LINED IN A SILK AND COTTON BLEND.
SMALL FROG CLOSURE WAS ADDED AT THE NECKLINE AND A BLACK SATIN BOW TRIMS THE FRONT CLOSURE.
CONDITION: THE INTERIOR INNER NECKLINE IS HEAVILY FRAYED WITH SMALL FRAYS SEEN ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE INTERIOR ONLY. THE WOOL LACE THAT TRIMS THE COLLAR HAS FRAYS AND ABSENCE AND I PERSONALLY WOULD REPLACE IT, EASILY DONE.
THE JET BEADING THAT ENCIRCLES ALONG THE EDGE OF THE TOP HAS ABSENT BEADS AND I WOULD RECOMMEND REPLACING THAT AS WELL.
SIZING:

Vintage and antique items ARE NOT new items.
Vintage clothing is described to its best and sold as found…and described as accurately as possible. The items HAVE NOT been cleaned and should be cleaned prior to wearing at the discretion of the buyer. Often for proper fit, hang, and wear ability, pieces will need to be altered and/or adding a hook or snap here or there, with a seam closure or strengthening needed. Vintage clothing is most often worn previously, and if old stock, often has slight imperfections from storage, a hint of color or odor.
Measurements are to be assumed that they are at maximum, if you have any questions, please ask PRIOR to the auction’s end. These are antique articles, having the age stated….all flaws if any are painstakingly outlined. The exact color and sizing of an item is the responsibility of the bidder, please read the measurements carefully and ask questions if uncertain
