Beaded Antique Victorian Capelet French Black Silk velvet Shoulder Cape Textile
This textile belongs in a museum. This wonderful textile is an antique French capelet, dating to the late 1800s. The black material is a beautiful silk fabric.
This textile is hand beaded with the most fabulous design all over the ground symmetrical design I over exposed the photographs so you could see the pattern. Black is notoriously difficult to photograph well. The body is quilted with a layer of cotton for warmth and it's lined in silk. I've never seen a more elegant cape simply stunning!
