Cotton cuff - single, not a pair. Made from plain weave cotton. Large enough to fit around elbow of wearer - possibly a rococo-revival/centennial cuff or engageante. One side is wider with 1" deep hem, while other side has two small tucks. Both edges are trimmed in point-lace or crotched flowers in open-work design. Set into center band. Entirely machine-stitched with some hand-finishing on the inside. Milk glass button closure on center band.
