Bib

Object/Artifact

Fine diamond-patterned linen towelling made into bib that pins behind neck and fastens around waist. Top flap seems intended to fold over but maybe it was supposed to pin near the neck front. Narrow box pleat down front trimmed with row of tiny wire-rimmed thread-covered buttons.
