SUPERB SILK PARASOL IN SMALL SIZE

This is a super original silk parasol with deep silk fringing. It is useful either for a doll to hold or perhaps for display in a Dolls Trunk. It is the nicest little silk parasol I have seen in a very long time.

My collectors know how difficult it is now to find these good quality small silk parasols. Even if one is found, the canopy is often very split - and that usually has to be just accepted. This one has no splits! It does have a few very tiny holesin the silk canopy but nothing serious. The eight metal staves are all there. The handle is smooth wood with an ivory finial and ivory base to the handle. There is a little hole through the handle close to the ivory where a little ribbon or fine chain would have passed originally. A fine ribbon could be passed through if wished to secure the parasol to your doll for display. The canopy is so pretty with embroidered flowers at the top towards the finial and the fringing is lush and wonderful. As with all these old parasols I would not push it open fully as it would probably split the silk - but that is totally unnecessary as it displays well in the open position anyway. It measures just 10 inches long.... So ideal for your Bebe or Parisienne. A really superb item.
