• Excellent vintage condition; no rips or tears, but a 1 1/2" / 3.81 cm line of stitches is missing on the bottom left corner of the front - you can see the three empty couching stitches. This flaw does not detract from the total appearance - I had to hunt for it!
• From my smoke-free, pet-free and Covid-free home

☺ Pony Pearl: Embroidery using metallic threads is referred to as Goldwork and was popular in the Post World War II days of 1947 to 1964. At first glance, it looks like metallic bead work. The metal threads were usually silver, copper and gold. Goldwork is always surface embroidery or couching, where the gold threads are held onto the surface of the fabric by a second thread, usually of fine silk.
