Long linen apron with crocheted ruffle (Ref. 185)
Long linen apron with crocheted ruffle (Ref. 185)
Another wonderful apron for the most romantic Cecibirbona friends. Because the precious linen it is made of and a beautiful and high crochet edge make this kitchen dress even more precious.
In fact, this fine linen fabric hand-woven on a loom comes from an old trunk belonging to the grandmother of an ancient family from my Tuscany.
The cloth was made on a loom by expert hands and like all cloths of this kind the width was determined by the measurements of the loom, so the various cloths were sewn lengthwise by hand and these seams can be seen on the bodice and skirt. They are beautiful and constitute a further precious detail of this wonderful apron.
The front panel of the skirt is embellished with a beautiful original crochet border. Can you imagine how much time and patience it took to make it?
It is this edge that makes this apron romantic and suitable for all ages. It is in fact perfect for a girl, but also for an adult lady or a grandmother.
It is also beautiful as a sundress in summer.
It has a wide bodice that continues in two gathered panels and connected on the sides by two bows. A comfortable model to put on and take off without having to untie the bows.
It features two convenient front pockets, very useful for carrying small items you need to have close at hand, which feature the beautiful crochet flounce of the skirt.
A beautiful piece to add to your daughter or granddaughter's trousseau.
Perfect for a precious and meaningful gift for a special person.
The fit is comfortable, making it suitable for all sizes. You see it worn by me who is 1.64 tall.
The fabric is a pure antique linen with its original crocheted edge, dating back to the late nineteenth century.
NOTE: This vintage fabric is over a century old, so any small imperfections are to be considered characteristics of the fabric. Love and appreciate them, because they are a testimony to the time that this beautiful cloth has gone through.
Unique piece. Ready for delivery.
