Hello all! Picked up these little beauties online. I'd love if you could tell me more about them, are they both coin purses? Both roughly 2.75"L. The black beaded one has 'PAT, MAR 25. 90' which I assume means patented March 25, 1890? I know that doesn't necessarily mean that it's that old but I...
This belonged to my grandmother born in 1917. Found when cleaning out her house. It's not in the greatest condition but I am curious as to what it exactly is.
There's no markings except for the flower on the cap.
Trying to find out what exactly this is and what it’s worth and the story behind this. I found it in my grandmother’s closet. It’s an Elizabeth Arden made in Italy by Gucci.
Can anyone recommend a lace forum where I can post my inquiries or is it ok to post here?
I have some tassels that are simple, look older and not like any I've found so far. Same with some fringe but they are not attached to clothing or accessories so ...
Before I post on a forum, I check...
Looking for this beautiful maxi floral striped wrap/tie dress from Oscar de la Renta. Has ruffled lace edge details and puff sleeves.
Any idea what year this could be from or if anyone knows I could find one would be super helpful! I haven't been able to find ANY other photos of this dress...
I'm doing research on the trumpeter swan, and was wondering if anyone had any information on the use of swansdown/swanskin in clothing. Info on larger, non-trim, pieces would be very much appreciated, or on its production, but anything that anyone is willing to share will be met with enthusiam.
Hi everyone,
I recently came across this bracelet and was struck by how strange the pendants were. They are green glass but are textured and warped, as if they were something else before and repurposed. The thing is, I haven't a clue what they could have been.
Has anyone seen anything like...
I have had this 70s (i think?) Neiman Marcus dress for a while, but I don't really know what you would call it. Is it a dressing gown? A nightgown? An actual dress for wearing out? It is hairy and has a zipper (i think the photos have it on backwards) and it is not as heavy as it would seem...
I know this is old but I am not totally sure of dating. I bought a bunch of early 1900s clothing from the same woman and she said something about this being a robe worn in bed around that time period? Any info? Thanks!
I have acquired this dress and would like to sell it, but I have no idea how to price it?? ( I don't normally sell vintage clothing) I have been researching it for days, with no luck. I can't find any dresses like it, I have found undergarments/ slips, but I didn't think they made slips in bold...
Hi, my name is Latica, i am helping my MIL (who is helping a friend) go through an estate. We have found this beauty (hoping picture attached). After lots of googling, I am still at square one. Has anyone seen anything like this, or know of where I might find some Information. Unfortunately, I...
hello!
I purchased this cotton jumpsuit recently from a small vintage store. The seller thought it was 1940s, but I was thinking it could be a pair of beach pajamas from the 20s/30s. The fabric is very thin and lightweight and it looks like it has that wide leg style of beach pajamas. There are...
Picked this up today from a free box! One of the ladies thought it might be to keep boots upright but frankly I'm a little stumped. Any ideas? There are several pieces of cardboard shaped the same as the vinyl holder inside additional plastic sleeves. Thanks!
I picked up this uniform recently and cannot find anything similar! I believe its a Navy nurses uniform but I cant properly date it. Any information or help would be super helpful! Its very primitively and seems very early.
Hi folks,
I found this little case, I think it's for cosmetics, although no mirror, and I can't see another like it in a Google search. Or is it just the smallest case of a set, not cosmetics? Mens? It is fake leather, lining looks like rayon? There is plastic behind the elastic loops. The...
Hi guys, I am new to the forum and I am here for some help. I found this little treasure in a thrift shop in Bulgaria! So happy! Can you please help me identify and date it? My best guess is that it's some kind of basketball jacket/vest combo from the 70s? It's got quite a basebally look about...
I was needing help identifying this dress. I spent hours searching and tried google image, but haven't had any luck. It is an extremely heavy and thick material. The back has an open cut out or laser cut out. The tags have been cut out so there is not even a tag telling me for sure what kind of...
It's a top, I know that, no buttons, only a neck sash. Anyone know how it is supposed to be tied? Or, how it is supposed to be worn?
Any guesses on a time period? The label resource does not have this label listed. This is the only tag on the garment.
Hi, I was hoping that maybe I could get help with my antique lace piece. At first I thought this was just a very long table runner, but now I'm thinking it may be a shawl. Would this have been worn by a bride? I was also wondering what type of lace and time period. Thank you so much for all of...
Hi,
I've read what little I could find about Greta Plattry including her time designing for Teal Traina but haven't come across anything that looks even remotely like this in style or design. It seems somewhat "matronly" compared to other items I've seen with the the same label.
The lobsters...
