Charming. For a small infant. The loop on the sleeves would have attached them to the dress.
Amazing decoration on these two items, achieved by a heat process. I am assuming it must have been a heated decorated clamp where the cloth was inserted and a pattern produced. Do tell me more if you know about this. Thank you.
From the attic of a house built in 1550. Provance available.
