Sorry, this item has sold.

Long and very Rare Black Silk Veil Mantilla or Stole, which has been intricately Hand Made from Chantilly lace with Needlerun over, in black silk thread, from the Caen Provence of France.

The fabric retains its original shimmer which is truly mesmerising as the wearer moves. All the edges are scalloped, as was the style with this type of lace.
This is a beautiful, feminine lace item and has hardly any weight to it
It's quite rare to find one in this exceptional antique condition and this only adds to its beauty.
This stunningly beautiful and precious lady originates from France and was made by my relatives who came from Southern Spain, the pattern shows signs of both French and Spanish influences.

Length 72”
Width 18”

This is all hand made with an over run of black silk to highlight the woven pattern of chrysanthemums and foliage.
The mantilla was made in 1918 by one of my Great Grandmothers and was used once at a family wedding. It was professionally cleaned in July

Such a wonderful fabric should be seen and shown off, which is why I have decided to sell this lace, to lighten my own Heirloom collection.

It would be the perfect vintage accessory, or an indulgent treat for an avid collector. It would make the most fabulous evening Stole, no one will have another, it's unique and a whole world away from antique lace wraps.
Well stored since it was made, and placed in a ventilated store room since 1930. The lace has been shown in natural light for clarity and is completely untouched digitally.
Please drop me a line, if you have any questions.
