Description
40 inches wide! Spectacular SILVER art deco Egyptian shawl. 86 inches long! Heavy silver vintage assuit, this amazing masterpiece most likely took a lifetime & was a costly expense as well as time invested in making it. Pounds of gorgeous antique silver sewn with one stitch at a time made into a piano shawl circa 1920-1930. Coveted by wealthy tourists in the Jazz age. There is an area of patina, not significant as you can see, & lends to the authenticity of the silver content in the fabric. Someone probably tried to clean it. Large Geometric designed ends & the middle is solid silver that lays like a second silvery skin. A true collector's item. There are not many of these in the world & if you can collect one, it will be a worthwhile investment that will last another 100 years. Grand Dame 2.. 1920-1930 Egyptian Silver Assuit Vintage Piano Shawl Solid Silver
