#V-443- 1920s Black Silk Lace Dress - $28.00 AS-IS

Era - 1920s
Measurements - 42 inches long, fits 32 inch bust, 30 inch waist, 38 hips

Sweet black dress that is lace over satin with thin straps underneath and blousey lace on the bodice. There is a band that hooks at the waist. There are pieces of lace scarves stitched around the skirt of the dress, trailing slightly below the hem of the dress. Snaps down the back on the lining and the lace.

Condition - Dress is in good condition. It would make a great display piece but the lace is too delicate for wear. There are scattered tears and holes in the lace. Not noticeable at a quick glance but more notieable upon closer look. Satin lining is strong and has only a few pin dot holes.

#20-191- Black Purse w/Beading and Sphinx Frame - $28.00

Era - 1920s
Measurements - 9-1/2 x 6 inches
Label - none
Fabric - textured cotton

Great frame on this purse. The body looks to have been stitched to it. Old black textured cotton fabric. Has large jet beaded apliques on the front and back. My guess is that the fabric and beading came from an even older garment and was sewn to this 1920s frame. The aged metal frame has floral design and very fancy closure. There is an Egyptian metal piece on the front of the frame. Unlined.

Condition - Good condition. The sphinx and the top/sides of frame are rusted. The beaded applique on the front has some loose threads, and some beading missing.

#20-192- Pink Beaded Loops Flapper Purse - $28.00

Era - 1920s
Measurements - 7 x 5 inches
Label - none
Fabric - glass beading over silk

Pretty clear beads strung on pink thread. Hanging loops on the front and the back. Has silk lining. Super fancy floral filigree silvertone frame with enamel flower on the front of the frame. No strap.

Condition - Fair to good condition. The frame is aged, strap is missing. Frame doesn't close all the way. There are some breaks in the beading and some loops missing in areas. Lining is separating from the frame. Still a very nice display piece.
