Gorgeous antique 1900s embroidered cotton net and mixed lace blouse! The Schiffli lace is absolutely lovely with raised floral designs amidst the tiny dotted knots and connecting x's. Styled with a high neck with metal stays for shape, 3/4 length sleeves with net mesh trim, lightly gathered subtle blouson nipped waist with a front tab and split back peplum. The blouse has a double layer of net mesh with exception of high neck. Closes with snaps up the center back reverting to hook/eyes at neck.
Please enlarge photos for detail - she presents beautifully with minor flaws!

She cleaned up very well from her fresh bath! A couple minor spots remain with faint underarm yellowing. 1 neck stay needs to be re-stitched down. Mend to back (8th pic). Last collage shows inner net at underarms - yellowing more pronounced here and openings along seams. Bottom right image of collage shows outside of blouse - the yellowing will never be noticed when wearing with small hole.
Enjoy!
