Gorgeous Vintage Border Trim, BOHO CHIC Woven Silk/Metal thread Rare SALE

Description

I'm reducing this Border as I have a couple of more similar ones and need to make room for more! ;-)Was $8.00 yd.

Oh, this trim knocks me out. In fact I think it is too beautiful to call "trim" The word trim just does not impart the specialness of it. This is good enough to just put in a basket or bowl on a table and call it home decor, or art!
(the bottom picture is for a different trim that is coming up soon and is not included in this listing. But wouldn't they look lovely together?)
I believe this is silk, it is woven with a subtle metal thread. I'm not sure if it was hand woven on a loom or machine woven. I think this may be hand woven but I'm really not sure.
Anyway... I just love this stuff. Of course I say that about most of the stuff I have. I've been collecting trims and fabrics for a long time, selling some, getting more... kind of upgrading. The upward mobility of the crazy textile obsessed.
Clothes? Cars? New Shoes? Hair cut? Only if there is no textiles (or beads or buttons) on the horizon.
I look at it and so many possibilities glimmer in front of me. Too many possibilities. Home Dec projects, Hats, sashes, scarves, purses, embellishments, DIY reconstructions and deconstructions. So many ideas, so little follow through! LOL

This listing is for One Yard of this gorgeous silky trim. It measures 4 inches wide. I have 4 yards total. If you would like another yard Convo me.


Please remember that the majority of my trims are vintage. Most are New Old Stock and have been sitting in warehouses, storage units, and or my closets for years. Some are reclaimed or upcycled. There may be a snag or a spot or dusty and musty, or an imperfection of some kind in any of them whether upcycled, reclaimed, or NOS. I will say so in the descriptions if there is anything glaring. Mostly everything I have is in excellent condition unless it was something I couldn't pass up even though it was either tattered or tender.
(Aren't we all?)

Keep checking back as I am going to be selling quite a bit of my stash.
Hand beaded, embroidered and/or woven trims are coming up, seed beads, sequins, metallics, bullion... all vintage, some antique will be making an appearance.
Oh, I do love this kind of stuff so much! ;-)
If you have any questions don't hesitate to Convo me.
