A beautiful, simple yet so very elegant, antique Fichu - Perelene - very appropriate for the Regency era. Quite stunning is the handwork embroidery on the very thin, very soft, pure white cotton that would have been perfect as an accessory for hot summers. In exceptional condition, it is very clean - I have never laundered it. There is 2 very very tiny holes on each end at the front V where the seam ends. Measures 16" neckline while the just the collar is 6" wide/long and 26" across laying flat at the top - and length in the back at the center to hem is 11".  A fabulous piece of history that is museum worthy.
