Seller's description

Anchor yourself to the seaside splendour in this 1940s cape coverup! The white cotton cape has chenille stripes with anchor designs standing out in azure blue and candy apple red. Ties at the neck and is generously cut for a quick dry off or breeze protection. This capelet is in good vintage condition, a bit of missing chenille but no holes, stains, or odours to note.

Neck: 21"
Overall Length: 37”
