A delightful antique Christening dress in fine cotton voile. The cap sleeves are made of hand made lace.  There arevembroidered flowers in two bands near the bottom edge.  It closes with a tie at the top of the back of the gown.  It dates to 1900-1920.


The condition is very good, especially for an antique.  We note a few pulls in the fabric along some seams and very small holes but this does not detract (see photos).  Hand laundered and pressed.
