12" square, this antique hanky combines the soft sheen of cream-colored silk with lovely hand embroidery.

Buttonhole stitching finishes the scalloped edge.

An intricate design of roses, storks and butterflies borders the center. Silk floss in soft shades of cream, light-olive, rose and lavender contrast with bold black and white storks. Satin and outline stitch have been used.

This hanky is in fair condition; there are two small, but noticeable, holes within the center circle and several pinpricks through the fabric. It has been washed and ironed and is ready for you.

*vintage: gently used; posessing age, charm, character, maturity
