Red and cream striped silk top, 1850s. The top belonged to a crinoline dress, where the skirt was unfortunately lost. The top and skirt must have made a magnificent sight. For the time: extremely fashionable. Short sleeves, semi-circular neckline, tie string to adjust the neckline. Front closure by hook and eye. Good to very good condition. Underarm stains, somewhat darkened cream silk areas. Rare to find. Decoration is not included.
