French Silk Apron

 If you have ever shopped mu space at Camas Antiques you know that I am always on the lookout for items made in France.  Well, this little (and I do mean little) apron is from France.  It is made of a very delicate silk with lace everywhere.  But the most wonderful embroidered flowers are also present on this garment and I have never seen such beautiful workmanship. 

Take a close look at these photos and I think you will certainly agree that whoever made this apron took lots of car, as well as, time in doing so.  Not only is it the smallest apron, width wise, that I've seen but it has a darling little sailor-type collar on it.  That, too, is embroidered.


This thing is so darn cute I can't stand it.  Plus I have another one that has small rosettes on the front and lace, etc.  Just as cute but in a different way.

Both of these items will be available for sale in Camas very shortly.  Be sure to stop by and give them a look.

You'll love them both.
