1880’s/90’s Black Velvet Bonnet with Sequin Trim and duo-tone teal lining
$85.00
Late 1800’s, my best estimate is 1880’s/1890’s, black cotton velvet bonnet with black sequined trim, duo-tone teal silk lining, and long black silk satin ribbon ties and bows on either side.
Condition: great condition for its age
The velvet does not appear to be damaged on the exterior, but there are a few worn spots along the back where it would have touched the neck. The silk lining has thinned and torn in some places, but is still intact. The silk ribbons have torn in a few places, but are also in great shape for their age. Normally silk ribbons like these have completely deteriorated. The sequins on the trim show wear as well, but there don’t appear to be many missing!
Measurements (taken flat)
About 15” wide
About 10” deep
Ribbons are 32” in length each
