Handmade Crocheted Black Lacy Pointed Collar, Mourning, Detachable

Handmade crocheted collar is designed to cover a round neckline. This collar is 2 1/2 inches wide and extends to 16 inches long. There is a row around the top edge of the collar suitable for threading a narrow ribbon through to allow the collar to be slightly gathered to the neckline. The collar is made of 100% cotton thread and may be washed in warm water and laid flat to dry.

Whether you choose a simple solid cotton for work or every day wear or a pretty crocheted version for a lightly dressier look, collars offer an easy and unique way to change the look of your outfit. Regardless of age, social status, your economic conditions or where you resided in the country, collars were an essential part of every ladies wardrobe. With the number of examples and patterns in the period publications as well as examination of existing period photos (CDV’s,) it is safe to say that crocheted collars were very popular.

 AS a black collar this is a great collar for a mourning impression. This collar is shown with a pretty broach that is NOT included in this listing.

This collar is shown in black but can be ordered in white or cream as well as to any desired length.
