If you are buying these pieces to wear, they must be worn carefully, please keep in mind that they are 80 to 100 or more years old. Most of the items are all in good condition but please read the descriptions carefully for listed flaws. I cannot guarantee the wearability of older garments like these. I cannot predict how long they will hold up with wear. I think that most of the pieces are better for display.

#VL-11- AS-IS Black Silk Lace Shawl - $40.00

Era - Victorian
Measurements - 108 x 54 inches
Fabric - silk

Large, triangle black silk chantilly lace Victorian shawl. Very nice design on the back.

Condition - Fair condition. The lace is dry and crunches a little when you pull it. There are tears along the edge 1 to 3 inches and one corner is shreaded. Has several 1/4 inch holes i the center. My thumb went through the edge just laying it out, so it needs to be handled very carefully. You won't be able to repair it, because the fabric would just continue to tear. If it were in excellent condition, it would be $175.00
