Titanic Era Lace Blouse

From the seller:

Inventory no: Wbl.519

Absolutely stunning ,rich creamy victorian edwardian top,blouse with

original tail or train.

The fabric is a rich silk chantilly lace with a wonderful

fern design.

This top obviously at some time had a matching skirt.

Its a two layered top,inner is cotton tulle,outer is silk lace.

Inner layer is blousy ,outer more loose.

Wonderful gathered sleeves with original pearls and rose.

The roses attached on this top,are silk,and have

sadly seen better days.

The tail / train is in great condition and the large beaded

tassel only has one damaged long teardrop pearl.

The pearl trim around sleeves are mostly there.

I saw one damaged pearl.
