Antique linen apron with cutwork embroidery
Antique linen apron with cutwork embroidery
My addiction to aprons is well known to all of you!
Not only do I use them for cooking, but I wear them around the house all the time during many daily activities.
Taking care of our appearance is important, even at home, so the apron must be aesthetically beautiful and suitable not only for cooking but also for entertaining friends or relatives for dinner.
And this is beautiful and suitable for an important occasion, such as a Christmas lunch.
This is an apron that is basically a dress to wear over clothes, made of a beautiful old linen fabric and expertly embroidered. Hemstitch.
Its exceptionality is not only given by the fabric, but also by the delicate cutwork embroidery that decorates the skirt and the two pockets, making it very precious.
The design follows the typical Cecibirbona style: a bodice joined by a rich gathered skirt; the closure is through two pretty side bows. It can be worn practically from above, without having to untie the bows every time. The photos also show how it can be worn more tight, like all my aprons.
The fit is loose and comfortable, suitable for wearing over skirts and trousers, while maintaining a touch of grace and femininity.
This is a unique piece, made with pure antique linen fabric, an authentic treasure.
Any small imperfections tell its story and its age.
It is easily washable by hand with mild soap or in the washing machine at 30 degrees on a delicate cycle, avoiding spinning and drying in the sun.
The size is one size, and in the photos you can see how it fits on me, who is 1.64m tall.
