Description

Triangle silk lace shawl—Victorian- From great-grandmother.


 


Measures 5’ on all three sides, straight measure to tip is 52”, and fringe is 8” long. 


Good condition. Fine silk thread. Very handsome. Could be used at a window to let light through with a pattern;  or over a piano or end table. 


Not of tablecloth thickness. And of course, over a black suit/dress so elegantly shows down one’s back. Notice the intricate pattern.  This was probably milled, as work is very even for handmade.


Milled where my ancestor lived and worked -- the Lynn-Lawrence, MA mills in the early 1900s.  Of course, one could croquet this today, for many weeks of labor, but this awesome pattern is vintage Victorian and gorgeous! Hard to photograph.
