I have to say this is the most detailed and unusual netting type hat I’ve ever seen! It actually has two netting veils – the inner one is the heavier weight and the outer one is more fine/lighter weight. The top has gray color fern “fronds” with a velvety gray bow on top. What an eye-catcher!

This hanky has been part of my collection for many years and I think it’s exceptionally pretty! It has a blue background, center has pretty pink parrot tulips, there are tulips on the border, and it has crochet edging in variegated shades of blue. Hanky measures 13 ¾” x 13 ¾”, the crochet edging is an additional 1 ¾” – excellent condition!

The colors on this crochet southern belle hanky are different than usually found! The hanky is white linen, the crochet edge is variegated black, gray, and white, and the “belle’s” dress is black. She has a bright red hat and “holds” a red flower. Handkerchief measures 11 ¼” x 11 ½” and is in excellent condition.

Another beautiful white handkerchief with embroidered flowers – this one has lily-of-the-valley! Measures 14 ½” x 15” and is in excellent condition.

This is an outstanding handkerchief! It’s white with petit point roses in one corner – the roses are pink and blue – and it has a beautifully done tatted edging. Hanky measures 13” x 13 ¼”. Absolutely gorgeous!

Absolutely beautiful hanky! It’s white with a border or orange color rosebuds and gold color sprigs of baby’s breath. There is a large bouquet of orange color roses in the center and a hanky corner is shaped for one of the roses. Hanky measures 13 ¼” x 13 ½” and is in excellent condition.

Another excellent condition hanky with pretty colors and design! This one has an aqua color edge and “ribbon” that “ties” together the four bouquets of purple flowers. There are lots of purple rosebuds and white daisies – just very pretty! Hanky measures 13 ½” x 13 ¼”.

This hanky is beautiful! It’s white with embroidered pink roses in each corner. Measures 13 ¼” x 13 ¼” and is in excellent condition.

The detail on this handkerchief is so nice! The hanky is brown and each corner has a large oak leaf with the hand stitched/rolled hem matching the shape of the design. The “stems” of each leaf are linked together in the center – unusual design. Hanky measures 12 ½” x 12 ¾” and is in excellent condition!

This is a pretty hanky! It’s white with a large “L” monogram – also in white. Hanky measures 16” x 16 ½”.

The colors on this pretty hanky are somewhat unusual! The hanky is white with a blue border that has blue with white rosebuds all around. The central design is a large tan, brown, and white rose with blue leaves and stem! The rolled and stitched hem is tan color to beautifully coordinate with the color of the large rose! Hanky measures 14 ¾” x 14 ¾” and is in excellent condition. Based on the style and design of this handkerchief, I would surmise it is a Burmel production.

Several years ago, I began a small collection of “hand” vases – this vase is from that collection and I will be listing others in the future. Vase measures 5 1/8” tall (at tallest) and is in excellent condition – there is some wear to the color on her fingernails – that’s it! Bottom has the original silver with burgundy foil sticker that shows a covered wagon, a crossed sword and gun, the letters P (at top), D (at bottom), and Japan. Lovely item that caught my eye!
