Description: DATING TO THE 1860’S FASHIONED OF A BROWN FIGURED SILK WITH A FLORAL PATTERN. ALTHOUGH THE PATTERNS ARE IDENTICAL, THE FABRIC ON THE SKIRTING OF THE BOTTOM IS LIGHTER THAN THE FABRIC OF THE TOP. SEWN BY BOTH MACHINE AND HAND. THE SLEEVES ARE SET OFF THE SHOULDER WITH PIPED SEAMS AROUND WITH A FULL CUT BELL SLEEVE WITH A PIPED TRIM FRONT CUFF DETAIL. INNER UNDERSLEEVES ARE ATTACHED AND ARE TULLE AT THE TOP AND A BOTTOM BELL LACE CUFF. THE INNER SILK SLEEVE IS FINISHED IN BOX PLEATED SILK. POLISHED SHELL BUTTONS CLOSE THE FRONT WITH A SHORT FAN OF BONING ON EACH SIDE. PIPING IS AT THE WAISTLINE WITH THE SKIRTING FALLING LONG AND IS COMPLETELY UNLINED. CONDITION: THE FABRIC OF THIS DRESS IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. EACH INNER SLEEVE SEAM IS COMPLETELY UNDONE, I SUSPECT THAT IT WAS A DIFFERENT SILK THREAD AND HAS COMPLETELY POPPED AND NEEDS TO BE FULLY RESTORED BACK WITH STITCHING. THE BOX PLEAT SILK RIBBON THAT TRIMS THE SLEEVE EDGE, I WOULD REMOVE, AND NO NEED TO REPLACE AS THE PIPED EDGE IS ENOUGH. THE THREE BOTTOM BUTTONS ARE MISSING, AS PICTURED. THE FABRIC IS STRONG AND THE DRESS IS FULLY WEARABLE ONCE THE SEAMS ARE REPAIRED. NO STAINING OR WEAR, A BEAUTIFUL CIVIL WAR ERA GOWN.
