A Collection of Ladies' Accessories Including Handkerchiefs, Gloves, and Lace Trimmings - An assortment of mid-20th century ladies' fashion accessories featuring a variety of textiles and materials. The collection includes multiple handkerchiefs crafted from fine cotton or silk lawn. These pieces exhibit diverse floral prints in colors such as pink, blue, yellow, and red on grounds of white, gray, and green. Decorative details include scalloped edges, picot-stitched borders, and hand-embroidered accents. Notable pieces include two square linens with crocheted lace trim; one features a brown pictorial design of a figure in historical dress, and the other shows green ornate scrollwork. The lot contains two pairs of gloves: one pair of mid-length black leather gloves with decorative linear top-stitching on the back of the hands, and one pair of off-white textured knit gloves with a repeating chevron pattern. Additionally, there are several pieces of cream-colored lace, including a wide floral lace collar and an embroidered eyelet trim piece with a deep lace fringe. These trimmings appear intended for attachment to garment collars or cuffs. Construction techniques throughout the lot include machine and hand embroidery, machine-made lace, and tailored leatherwork. No maker's marks or labels are visible on the items.
