Vintage 1920s Long Wedding Dress Train Piece, 10 feet, Tulle, Flowers, with issues

ERA: True vintage item from the 1920s
MEASUREMENTS: the item is 130 inches long, it is 13 inches wide at the top and 28 inches wide at the base
MATERIAL: silk gold metallic fabric with rayon tulle, cotton lace, silk chiffon backing. With flower and faux pearls.
LABEL: none
Very long antique train for a wedding dress. The top is narrow and it widens at the bottom. I don't know how it attached to a dress - there are no snaps or hooks. But I believe it would have attached high, on the back of the neck.
It is a crinkle gold metallic thread silk blend fabric, backed in ivory chiffon and topped with ivory rayon tulle. Cotton lace around the edges with faux pearls. The tulle is kind of gathered near the end with groups of flowers stitched to it. Gold mesh covered weights on the ends of the train.

CONDITION: Fair condition. There are large very dark brown stains over the train, on the gold metallic fabric. There are scattered small holes in the tulle and in the chiffon. There are several bunches of flowers missing.

The price reflects the issues. If the train was in very good condition, it would be priced at $300
