Battenberg lace wedding veil, c.1900
This lovely lace veil can be the "something old" part of your wedding ensemble. Remember the old English saying:
Something old, something new
Something borrowed, something blue
And a silver sixpence in her shoe.
The veil retains the endearing charm it must have had 100 years ago when first worn by a young bride on her special day. For romantic appeal, nothing can equal the feminine lace accessories from a century ago.
The veil is fashioned from white cotton dotted tulle and is bordered all around with a floral pattern of hand-appliquéd tape lace. The cap is truly special because of its elaborate lace design and wax flower embellishment. The sweeping train and the cap together create a lasting impression of beauty.
The condition is almost excellent. I found a few pinprick holes that are virtually invisible when the veil is worn.
The veil is 101" long from the base of the cap.
