Description
These are exquisite collection of romantic floral wax bridal tiara headpieces, beautifully designed and decorated with molded wax petaled orange blossom flowers, white tear drops and both with stamens in center. Wax flowers are sewn on a fabric covered round wire. These handmade headpiece was expertly constructed. and has taken on a wonderful faded grandeur air or patina which gives it tons of charm and style. I believe they date from the 1915 thru 1920s. Probably made in Czechoslovakia.
CONDITION
All in very good condition. Some missing pieces that I can see. Tolle veil is very poor. I have not cleaned this collection, as found.
APPROXIMATE MEASUREMENTS Our antique textiles are collectible and are not new and not reproductions, and have lived a long and eventful life and sometimes developing flaws. We do not launder or dry clean unless stated in listing, and most times have been in storage for many decades picking up old age storage oxidation spots. Our descriptions are true and accurate to the best of our ability. We try to observe and report every defect that we are aware of to give the buyer an accurate description but to mention every single minor blemish is laborious and unnecessary. As condition and description is largely based on personal opinion, we ask that you look at the numerous photos carefully and decide the rating and pattern if applicable of this item for yourself. Everything is sold As Is. The stated overall condition of the lot is based on the assumption that the wear is consistent with age and use. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections, or the effects of aging. All other condition issues are stated above. To request additional condition photos, please email oldthreads@aol.com with the lot number. Condition is a matter of opinion of the evaluator and should not be treated as a statement of fact. Clients must review and agree to the Conditions of Sale before participating in an auction.
