Hello and welcome to the Textile Trunk!
A charming vintage textile! This apron is French, dating to the early 1900s, circa 1920. This is one wonderful timeworn treasure!! Lovely medium weight deep blue indigo and white cotton weave chambray fabric. ~There is a little hand stitched mend on one pocket. This wonderful apron has a bib, with ties for wrapping around the waist. There are 2 little front pockets. Such a charming piece that is beautifully distressed!! ~*~ Ideal for use or display, a lovely vintage item! ~*~ ( apron EC6 )
MEASUREMENTS : This gorgeous antique apron measures 38 inches wide at the waist (not including the ties), and it's about 35 inches long ( not including the neck ties). The bib is about 8.75 inches wide at the top.
CONDITION : This lovely textile is in as found, not freshly laundered condition. There are some tiny stains at the center lower front, a hand stitched mend and some voids in the white thread that give this a kind of mottled look. One of the seams near the breast looks to be splitting open a bit. There are a few tiny thin spots or holes. Still very sturdy and usable condition!
