Description

From an era when women often slipped a small delicate handkerchief into the pocket of their dress or jacket, this charming piece would have been the perfect accessory to showcase refinement and style.

The handkerchief is worked in a square design of drawn thread embroidery accented with pink threadwork. Fine hemstitching adds a tasteful detail, while the lace edging provides a soft, elegant finish. Smaller in scale, it was just the right size to peek neatly from a dress pocket, a fashionable and graceful touch of the 1920s, 1930’s and 1940’s.

Size is 7″ square. Condition is nice.
