This is a lovely soft white cotton lace blouse made of Swiss Guipure lace. It opens down the front and can also be worn as a jacket. The entire blouse is lace with a heavy flower design on the front and back panels and on the top of the sleeves. There are nine raised daisy like flowers on this rich design. There are scattered leaf designs over the entire blouse.

Down the front are 13 little flat pearl buttons (one odd) with loops. I would estimate the size as a stretchable 10 to 12. Length of blouse from shoulder to hem, 20 inches (54 cm). Circumference at bust, 40 inches ( 84 cm). Length from plain round collar to cuff, 20 inches (54 cm). The condition is good with a few unnoticeable mends. From the Guipure lace I would say the age is turn of the Century but the style makes me think it could be somewhat latter. Whatever, it is a lovely wearable vintage lace treasure. Overseas surface postage $8.00
