Very witchy silk capelet circa 1890s with a unique lace collar.

Something I love about this capelet is how it was pieced together with different fabric shapes and sizes. Whoever made this wasn't wasting anything!

The collar is decorated with a loose weave lace that reminds me a bit of spiderwebs. Trimmed with a tissue silk at the top edge.

Two hook and eye collar clasps at the neck. Very easy to wear and lightweight.

Measurements

14" collar circumference

14" long measured from the base of the collar at the center back to the bottom hem.

Condition

Lovely condition with minor age-related wear. The lace is a loose weave and hides any of the tiny imperfections. Some fraying around the edges of the tissue silk trim. A few tiny spots throughout but nothing noticeable.

Strong and wearable with care.
