*Sale* Very delicate cotton petticoat with scallop trim - small size - possibly child's - could be reused
Such a beautiful fabric, a very fine cotton voile made into a petticoat that must have belonged to someone very well-off. Beautifully-made, with a hand-embroidered scalloped trim, it does up at the back with two buttons. This is in extraordinary condition considering its age and the fineness of the fabric - there are a couple of pale marks, and the opening at the back has come unstitched at the bottom. This is a very small size - it would have been worn by someone who was both small-framed and corseted, but perhaps someone out there can find a use for it, or someone tiny will see it! It measures 27cm lying flat at the waist - so 54cm around the waist.
