What can I say: Breathtakingly beautiful vintage 1920's hand embroidered silk shawl trimmed with 20" of jet black silk fringe! The vibrant flora motif is done shades of hot pink, red, magenta, peach and varying shades of blue. The huge roses appear to almost leap off the black-as-night silk background. These shawls were often worn or used to decorate the tops of a piano or table...I say WEAR it and wear it well. The possibilities are endless. Toss it over bare shoulders or wrap it seductively around your hips...you just can't lose! The condition is Mint, with the exception of a tiny pin-hole near one edge. An easy mend and not really worth mentioning. No label but most likely made in France.
