Description

a) 7 pieces of sequin and beaded black dress trim that are joined together and tacked onto a length of gauze. the individual pieces are roughly shield shaped with a floral motif in top center. The tiny beadwork forms a background and edging - sequins are used for accent - very effective. b & c) Companion pieces used as collar trim (?) - they do not match a) exactly but 'go with' it. They have been sewn (not tacked) directly onto black netting, joining 2/3 down center and have been joined at tops by a row of beads also sewn on the netting, forming a collar.
