Vintage Boxed Ladies Handkerchiefs Set - Lace & Embroidered Pastels with Velvex Opal Seal
Product Description: Up for sale is a beautiful vintage 1940s/1950s boxed set of ladies' decorative handkerchiefs. This complete vintage presentation layout features five delicate handkerchiefs in a lovely array of mid-century pastel tones, including lavender, soft cream, mint green, blush peach, and baby blue.
Each piece is ornately finished with wide, scalloped lace trim borders, floral embroidery details, and accent ribbon bows. Remarkably, one of the central hankies still retains its original scalloped gold foil manufacturer's seal reading "Velvex Opal". The set is housed inside its original textured gold cardboard presentation box, printed on the lid with a scenic landscape artwork. A wonderful addition to a vintage fashion collection, a mid-century haberdashery display, or a sweet vanity table accessory.
