Description

Color: White A woman's white embroidered pleated skirt. The item has three pleats to it and the embroidered section is one 27-inch long design from a few inches in from the hemline to a few inches shy of the waistline. It consists of a long vine with leaves, some having small dots within them, two flowers, and a few buds. At either end of the inside of waistline are two fabric hooks sewn into the skirt and probably used as hanging hooks. There are several notable stains throughout the garment, both outside and on the inner waistline, so the artifact is in fair condition.
