Vintage c. 1940s? handknit - Tyrolean style cardigan
Hard to date this for certain, but a very traditional tyrolean style embroidered cardigan, with original mother of Pearl buttons and decorative tassels. Sleeve heads are slightly puffed and it’s a fairly fitted 8/10 UK approx.
There are some old repairs, not an exact match in colour but secure. Please see photos
I did do a burn test as I couldn’t decide if dk wool or acrylic blend - if there is any manmade content it didn’t show in the test (all just turned to ash)
Measures:
Bust 30” unstretched to 32/34 max
Waist 24 unstretched to approx 26
Hips n/a
Length from nape to hem approx 22”
Underarm to cuff 20”
Condition:
As mentioned above old repairs. One small mark as shown to cuff, has been handwashed but didn’t spot treat anything so may be able to remove. Ready to wear as it comes, with noted flaws.
