Antique French Silk Souvenir Handkerchief Purple Violets

So beautifully kept all these years, this antique Silk French Handkerchief was most likely brought home by a soldier stationed in France during WWI for his sweetheart or Mom.  Never used, but oh so carefully kept, finest Cream Silk is hand embroidered with Silk thread much like the Society Silk pieces. 

 

The Lavender Purple Violets are so sweet, "Souvenir de France" embroidered in Lavender silk thread. Beautiful 1-1/4" Lace border makes this extra special, a fantastic addition to your antique and vintage handkerchief collection.
