Here is a stunning antique beaded lace collar, probably from there later 1800s Victorian period.
This amazing rare surviving larger sized collar or smaller sized shoulder shrug is made from cream lace, lovely floral patter. The flowers have been hand embellished with tiny cream glass beads which shimmer in the light which I have tried to show in the close up photos. Finished off the an good net ruffle edging, does sit right over the shoulders and end approximately just under the bust, some loops at the back to attached it nicely to a top or dress. it is in excellent condition for its age with no real wear from what I can see, no noticeable bead loss, please see all the photos. Would be brilliant for a bride on her wedding day.
Condition: Excellent (very minimal wear)
