Beautiful White Hanky embroidered in blue with a graceful letter "J". Embroidered flower buds, leaves, and vines frame the monogram . The hanky has been hand-washed, line-dried and lightly sized.
The hanky measure 12" square. The fabric is semi-sheer; I believe it to be a linen or linen/cotton blend.
The embroidery is done in raised and padded satin and outline stitches and has a slight sheen. The monogram has the most raised feel and look of all the embroidery. Tiny, tiny fill stitches accent some of the embroidered leaves and flowers. There are a few shadowork leaves as well.
The monogram and surrounding embroidery is approximately 4 inches tall in the center and 4 inches wide at the widest part. The embroidery appears to be Madeira work although there is no tag.
There is a pretty woven ribbon border around the edges of the hanky. The hem is hand rolled.
There are no stains, rips or tears. To my eye, this handkerchief is near perfect.
This would make a wonderful wedding accessory!
Please email with any questions you have.
I will be listing other hankies and will combine shipping. Some are printed; many will be white with monograms and/or embroidery, and very suitable for weddings. I also have a lot of white hankies listed as well as vintage fabric.
I accept Paypal only and do not ship internationally. As my items are vintage, I do not accept returns. My home is smoke-free but is ruled by my non-shedding miniature poodle Pete.
Thank you for looking at my listing!
