Beautifully Beaded Bodice








From the seller:

BEAUTIFUL VICTORIAN FRENCH VISITING VEST

Purple color. Satin fabric. Jet beads and pearls ornaments on front and at the end of sleeves

Waist 28", bust 35"

Condition is good but there are underarms marks inside on lining non mark outside


From Me:

Based on the slight tale, the raised neckline, the overall shape of the sleeves, and the beading detail, I'm thinking 1880's for this one.
