Description
This is an extra long Victorian or Edwardian apron offine cotton lawn
from the estate of a woman who spent a lifetime amassing an enormous and wide-ranging collection of quality vintage and antique items. She lived to be 104 and left a farmhouse and barn full of wonderful things.
This must have been worn by someone rather tall. Bottom edge sweep of 51 inches! Lace trimmed base edge.
The apron has been steamed to remove wrinkles and washed but not deeply cleaned. No aroma. Very good vintage condition for fabric which is at least a hundred years old and perhaps older than that. Several small light brown stains which might come out with a longer soak and a gentle stain remover. One darker mark which I can't locate at the time of the listing. A few pinhead-size brown spots. A couple of 1/4 inch holes or tiny tears. Hard to see.
Approximate measurements in inches:
Length: 40
Waist: 41
Length of ties: 50 and 3/8 (yeah, really long!)
Sweep 51.5
Please DO NOT expect vintage clothing to be like new. It will almost never be. Also, this clothing tends to be more fragile than new and should be handled and worn with care. The nature of textile is ephemeral. Vintage items are described to the best of my ability and unless there has been a SUBSTANTIAL error in the description, they are non-returnable and non-refundable. Fit is not guaranteed; compare measurements provided with clothing of your own. Many photos have been taken at the time of listing so they are available if needed to provide proof of condition and measurement. Clothing will be folded and shipped in either a box or an envelope with tracking.
Please ask any questions before bidding as all sales are final. No partial refunds will be given.
Please check back often as this is just the beginning of the listings. Thank you for looking!
