Antique Full Apron, Black and White Shirting Fabric

AP202

This is a great, old apron.  It is made from a shirting print that is black on white…all cotton.  It is a full, bib apron and it measures 36″ from shoulder to hem.  It ties at the neck and buttons at the waist.  It’s very wide at the bottom and measures 55″ across.  The hem is very wide at 13 & 1/2″.  It could be let out to make the apron longer or cut and used for the fabric.  This early, antique apron is in excellent condition and appears unused.  The only stains I could find are a few on the inside hem.  A perfect addition to a collection or for anyone that loves Americana.

PRICE: $55.00

Antique, Homespun Check Full Apron, Blue and White

AP201

This is a great, old apron in a cotton, blue and white “homespun” check.  Technically, this is factory made fabric, but it known as homespun in the antique softgoods trade.  I’ve had this in my collection for many years.  It is long, measuring 52″ from shoulder to hem.  As you can see in the pictures, it has a ruffled collar on the yoke, making it extra special.  There is one, smaller pocket and hand worked button holes.  It buttons around the neck and around the waist.  It appears unused and the condition is excellent, except for 4 stains.  You can see the worst in one of the photos.  If you have an apron collection this is a must have.  Hang it up and it adds instant texture to any Americana decor.

PRICE: $65.00
