Opulent Fan 4 1/2" |
 |
in Original Box SOLD |
 |
 |
In its original, mandolin shaped, decorated cardboard box is this outstanding carved bone fan with fabric covering that fans out like perfectly placed flower petals. Along the edge, the dreamy trim of a white, feathery border catches the breeze. On one side is mounted a tiny, fancy oval mirror and a coordinating peach tassel hangs from the handle ring. Excellent. Made in the mid-nineteenth century, this versatile accessory could grace the lap of an 1700's wooden doll, on up to a well-heeled 1800's fashion doll. The fan is 4 1/2” long when closed, and spreads out to a width of 7 1/2”. The box is 5 1/2” long. |

Superb, Detailed Parasol in the Huret Manner SOLD |
 |
 |
 |
When only the best will do for your early French fashion, a piece like this deluxe fashion parasol can fit the bill. It is 7 3/4” long, has a cream and lavender silk canopy with subtle outer decoration and a long silk fringe around the top end tip and bottom perimeter. The condition of the outer canopy is excellent, while the silk lined inner canopy has some melting, exposing some of the ribs and stretchers. The shaft is metal, also similar to the Huret parasols, and the handle is carved bone, as is the tip which has a bone ring. What makes this fashion's accessory stand out from the crowd is the handle tip, which is a transparent red glass ball with a series of raised gold stars circling the orb. |
