FINE CHINA
Lovely Asian skirt with the fine hand embroidery. Decorated with flowers and butterflies. Apron skirt wraps and is held with a bakelite button at waist. The side panels are pleated and are held in place by hand stitching. Partially lined.
I can't imagine all the hours that it took to make this work of art.

waist: 26", the buttons can easily be moved and accommodate apporox up to waist 30"
length: 36"
FABRIC: unmarked, feels like silk with cotton waist.

CONDITION: pretty amazing for it's age. there is some fraying on the inside lining of skirt. a couple of pin size rust spots...pretty minor wear.
