Antique French Linen Apron

A charming antique French kitchen apron made from beautifully thick, substantial linen, hand-embroidered with the initials V.G. in red thread. Measuring approximately 36 inches in length (not including the top bib), this is a generous full working apron typical of those used in traditional French country kitchens. The linen has been gently restored and soaked several times to lift years of age related soil, revealing a soft natural patina and lovely texture that only old linen develops over time. The fabric remains strong, weighty, and beautifully preserved. 

Measures sizes: 36" long x 35" wide 

Condition: Very good antique condition. Carefully laundered: light signs of age consistent with antique linen.
