PRETTY LEMON YELLOW FLORAL SPITALFIELDS DRESS SILK ca. 1780

A dainty skirt panel of fresh lemon yellow with white, and occasional coloured floral sprigs, dating from about 1780.

The silk is a complete width with two selvedges, but it has a pocket opening in the middle from the top 10” down.

This has been hand-stitched all round.

This is a delightful and unusual colour, and the silk is in very good condition.

Measurements: Total length 42” x 19” wide.

Price: USD $300.-
