Description
Offering a pair of exquisite finely cotton embroidered lace on linen vintage handkerchiefs Made in Austria.
Original labels "˜new and unused'. Mid-20th century.
All of my handkerchief listings were purchased from single source-a living estate of a sweet and lovely 93 year old woman.
11" x 12"
Condition notes-excellent condition with the exception of a brown spot on one linen-see last photo. This may be removed thru laundering for vintage linens.
Handkerchiefs are a thoughtful gift for romance, weddings, anniversaries, sympathy, baptism and prayer. A statement piece for social event, opera, and times of love, joy, hope, and sadness.
These are a matching pair making for a special gift for sisters on their wedding day, a mother and daughter, or mother and grandmother.
Also used as doilies to showcase special floral arranged or collectible. Heirloom pieces are often framed on black backdrop as artwork.
Throughout history they have been symbolized as a sign of romance, remembrance, social status, and are environmentally friendly.
A beautiful aesthetic in place of kleenex during impromptu special moments. Bridal hankies are often passed down within families as an heirloom piece.
