| Item | Antique woman's apron from Tekov region, Slovakia |
| Dimensions | 29" long |
| Condition | Good Condition - light wear |
| Description | This listing is for an antique lady's apron from the Tekov region of southern Slovakia. This is an older style of apron that was worn at the end of the 19th and first part of the 20th century. It is made of heavy polished cotton and hand embroidered. In very good, antique condition with light wear consistent with its age. Folds into a small bundle to preserve the folds when in storage. A unique piece and a great addition to your collection.
A note regarding condition: All of the costumes and textiles that I sell are vintage and have typically seen decades of use resulting in expected wear and tear that add to the history and authenticity of each piece. In case of above average wear, I try to list any significant damages and heavy signs of use in the above description. Depending on the age, materials, and condition, I will often hand-wash more durable, colorfast cotton and linen elements, but embellished garments, heavier wool pieces or items made from silk or fine fabrics are sold in the original, unwashed condition. Small holes or stains, missing sequins/beads, worn trim, and other marks related to standard wear are common and do not detract from the value of most pieces. Please keep in mind that a vintage textile or garment in very good condition might still show signs of use, storage and age. Unless otherwise noted, all of the items listed for sale are in very good, stable condition and are suitable for use, wear or display. I am more than happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have, so please ask questions to allow me to offer you the best service possible. I stand behind every item I sell and want you to be happy with your purchase. |
