Beautiful lavender silk dress circa 1860s with fabulous hand knotted silk fringe trim and trained skirt.
Hook and eye closures down the front of the bodice with decorative silk buttons. Single deep pocket on one side of the skirt.
Remnants of a tag sewn into the bodice may indicate this piece was once part of a museum collection.
Would be a beautiful study or display piece.
Machine and hand sewn.

+++ Condition +++
Overall fair to good condition with some flaws to note:
- Some areas of splitting/tearing in the silk
- Several light brown stains throughout
- Missing one hook closure
- Color has faded over time
- Some holes in the lining
- Some wear along the hem
Due to her age, I would not recommend this piece for wearing.
