This is a place for any extant garments in private collections from about 1941 back. There is no beginning date. The only rule is that it can't be currently in a museum and must be before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I mostly post items I've seen on ebay, etsy, or other auction sites so we will continue to have a record of them for research purposes. If you have antique clothing in your collection, please, email me pictures of them and I will gladly add them to this site.

Antique Edwardian - early 1920's gloves
Embellished with stunning hand-made cutwork & embroidery
A trio of early snaps at the wrists

This pair is just one piece from a huge linen and textile collection that will be listed over the next few weeks. I am happy to combine shipping when possible, so please see my other listings & check back frequently.
Measurements
Glove fabric have some give and stretch. Measure 21" long, 6" around the palm, stretches easily to a 6.5".
Condition
In good condition. Some wear and mends at the fingertips and a few areas of cutwork have loose stitching. Please see photos for details of this pair and its condition.
From Me:
My guess is that these are late 1900's/early teens era.
