Edwardian White Blouse Checkered Pattern Large

Edwardian White Blouse Checkered Pattern

Delightful and almost modern in tone is this button down from the 1910s, in white cotton. It has a fold down, pointy collar in white silk organza with embroidered flowers, long sleeves with large, upturned, buttoned cuffs and vertical pleating on either side of the closure. The fabric of the body is a subtle white on white check pattern throughout.  Center bottom of the back is gathered and has sash ties. 

No tags/handmade
Fit: Medium to large depending on how fitted you prefer it to be, but please see exact measurements below to ensure fit. It is boxy unless you tuck it in!

Shoulders 17"
Sleeves 23"
Chest 47"
Waist 40"
Hips 44"
Length 22"

Condition: Very good, with professional repairs and a few imperfections. The silk collar has been expertly darned in a few places. The body of the shirt shows a few pin prick sized holes and there is very faint, pale yellow section (a few cm in length) at right front.  Also, the left sleeve at middle of the arm has a cross shaped repair stitch.
All of this is only visible if pointed out in direct light. Priced accordingly.
