RARE GIRL’S WHITE LINEN EMBROIDERED CAP – ENGLISH ca. 1700

A girl’s linen cap with floral embroidery. I have dated it at about 1700, but these caps were worn by women, girls and infants during the 17th century, so this cap could be earlier than stated. It is prettily decorated all over with a floral design, and is lined. There is a drawstring at the back neck.

Measurements: 5” from crown to front.

Condition: Excellent. No damage or marks.

Price: US$ 750.-
