Tartan Silk Stole
1840s

Very nice quality. Good weight for wearing. Was this a sash, worn diagonally for Scottish dancing? 



 


Cataloguing

In shades of dark green, green blue, royal blue, black and with red and silver stripes, the silk a twill weave, both ends with knotted fringing.



8ft 3 in x 12 in; 2.50 x 30 cm


Condition

Very good. There is a little row of pinprick holes and another slightly larger but very small hole, but unless you hold the stole to the light you don't see them.
