"Scalloped Beadwork" Vintage 1920's Fine Black Cotton Beaded Blouse UK 10-16 US 6-12

The allure of this stunning fine black cotton 1920's blouse surely lies in the perfect play between the cool gleam of the intricate bugle beading set against the soft sheer cotton base.

Her rounded neckline is framed to either side by thin shoulder straps, that join the blouse in its incredible rectangular pattern cut, allowing for this piece to drape elegantly, in a wide cut. Embellished with silver and iridescent pearlised bugle beads, in a scalloped and abstract art deco pattern, every detail of this piece showcases the incredible craftsmanship and design of the era.

This blouse is made of thin cotton, and is sheer.
