No label or imprint but I just know it is an early Liberty silk scarf..
That crimson
That eau de nil
That soft sky blue with grey overtones.
I am guessing 1950s .......hooray, another for my collection.
It's lovely Jan - certainly looks like lovely Liberty. I have 3 myself now - I am a disciple. Are there certain styles/types to look out for particularly or is it best to go with what you like? Also, do you keep all yours squirreled away or do you display some of them.
I have a passion for vintage textiles, I even have a degree in printed and embroidered textiles (many decades ago), and I still find them intriguing! I hope to be able to share my thrift stores and market finds from all over the world. Toronto has been my home for 45 years.
Where to find me
Saturday mornings 8 - 1. Brickworks Farmers Market, Toronto
Great find! Love the colours.
