This is an early one, beaded on a fine blue silk, with the older, dimensional flowers and leaves. Amazingly, especially for pieces on silk, this is in very good condition. Several of the bead loops need to be attached again, just to make them all the same length but, the looped fringe is mostly present. There is of course, surface soil and a few very small worm bites front and back and wear to the original hanging ribbon. Really, nothing major and, the silk is not crumbly. Someone added a string loop to hang it from, to spare the tattered ribbon so it now hangs neatly. These are getting difficult to find, especially in reasonable condition and this is a sweet one. $ 275.00 US (Requires Cookies)   .: Site by Virgo Media :.
