Stunning Antique 1870s Linen Bonnet hand made from home loomed Metis Linen fabric.
Originating from Yorkshire, made by Flemish settlers.
Size:
Approx 6" from forehead to tip of lappet.

Please remember that ladies were much smaller during this period, and this cap does not quite sit perfectly on our modern display head. The cap still retains the maids name on the inner seam. It’s in ‘as found’ condition.
The item is part of a Private heirloom collection, it’s been very well stored throughout
The fabric has been shown in natural light for clarity and is completely untouched digitally. The date is appropriate as I was informed at the time I obtained the item.
