#5480 - RARE c. 1840's
Black Striped Silk and Pink Quilted Silk Soft Bonnet with Original
Attached Red Hair Curls!!
Wow! I seem to have a fascination with
antique wigs and hairpieces. Can't explain it, but I'm
assuming I'm not the only one. This silk soft long lappets
bonnet from the 1840s has the original attached side curls for a
REDHEAD!!! Please take a look at all the other photos so you can see
all the details. Really in excellent condition except for the
small area of holes at the back (from weakness of the silk at the
fold), but otherwise it's still quite strong and in great condition!
I'm sure the interior pink quilted silk has faded over time, but
it's still pink! This is certainly a museum quality piece.
SOLD - But on Display for Research/Study
