Vintage robes made from ombre blanket cloth are increasingly sought after for their cozy warmth and for the wonderful woven patterns often used. This is a particularly nice one, probably late 1930s to early 1940s, based on the art deco influenced pattern. The robe is styled with notched lapels and effective use of a coordinating border print at the cuffs and robe bottom. Pieced striping is also used to accent the top of the patch handwarmer pocket.

SIZE: No size label. The robe was measured laying flat. Given the wrap nature of the front, there is some flexibility of fit.
Chest - 46" (117 cm)

FABRIC/COLORS: Nice soft thick blanket cloth, reverse patterned, in an art deco-ish combination of vertical stripes and stylized flowers. Love the colorway of forest green and muted periwinkle blue, with a bit of dark violet shading.

TAGS: No tags
 
CLOSURES: No closures, this wraps in front and would be worn either clutch style or closed with a belt from your own wardrobe.

CONDITION: I see a few small orangish spots scattered around the pocket - see closeup. The nap is a bit worn in some places, like the back of the collar and the bottoms of the sleeves - see other closeup. No holes or tears.
