Mid-Century Organza & Sheer: Elegant hostess aprons including a pastel blue sheer organza half apron trimmed with delicate white eyelet lace embroidery, and a classic white Swiss-dot sheer ruffled apron.
Holiday & Seasonal: A dark forest green solid utility half apron highlighting a festive vibrant red poinsettia and holly leaf holiday corner print.
Retro Patterns & Novelty Prints: Assortment features pink-and-white seersucker pinstripes, classic red-and-white country gingham checks, solid holiday reds, calico florals, and geometric repeating mod prints finished with contrasting rickrack and velvet ribbon trims.
Material Composition: Includes a rich mix of mid-century sheer nylon organza, crisp cotton calico, breathable gingham linens, seersucker blends, and heavy-duty canvas weaves.
Condition Report: Good vintage pre-owned condition overall. The fabrics maintain nice color saturation and structural integrity. Given the large estate nature of this textile lot, typical light age-related wear should be expected, including minor faint storage spots, small loose threads, or light wrinkles from being stacked in storage as pictured.
