UNDERSLEEVES 1840s-1860's Victorian Civil War Sheer White Lace Trimmed New

Description

New pair of reproduction 1800's style under-sleeves, or sleeve jockeys. These are sized for an adult. These are new and have never been used. Perfect design for wearing under most dress sleeves.
The under-sleeves are made of washable sheer white 100% cotton with three rows of picot edged 1" wide lace, one on the cuff and two on the sleeve. The button cuff closes with an intricate black and gold dome shaped button.  This is a modern button but it has the look of an antique hand painted button with a dainty floral bouquet design
The top edge is turned to form a casing. Typically the sleeves were held in place with ribbon or cord run through the casing of the sleeve and tied. It can be difficult for today's woman, who often does not have help to dress, to tie the sleeves. In that case, I suggest using a length of elastic to hold them up, the elastic can be pinned with a small safety pin to allow for easy adjustment and used by more than one lady. I will supply both a length of ribbon and a length of elastic for your use.
The under sleeves are 19" long.  The undersleeves are 16" around. The buttoned cuffs are 8" The cuffs can be adjusted by changing the placement of the buttons. The 100% cotton undersleeves are completely washable.
I am happy to combine shipping on multiple items. Thanks for looking and Happy eBaying!
