The condition is at first appearance excellent but closer inspection did uncover some small breaks amd three larger breaks - two about 1.5" long that follow a line of the pattern and one that is a half circle about 2" x 1". There are also a couple of areas where perhaps an old mend was done and the thread has faded to a cafe au lait tone. I lowered my price quite a bit on this to accomodate for these small flaws and none of the breaks are so large as to detract or take away from this extraordinary textile and in my opinion the old and tiny repair where there has been color change adds to the immense beauty of this shawl!
Note that antique and twenties pieces are final sale. They will be packed exceedingly well and we only sell pieces that will stand up to the stress of shipping, however, having pieces potentially shipped multiple times through multiple customs and countries is too hard on garments that are historically important and deserve to be treated with love and care. Please purchase accordingly.
