| This is a pair of fancy linen lawn pantaloons with the monogram MH, all hand stitched from the Pallinsburn House estate in Northumberland (for more information on this important estate see the article on our home page) circa 3rd quarter of the 1800’s. These pantaloons have a 27 inch waist and are 23 inches long, the bottom edges have handmade Valenciennes lace and hand embroidered whitework, there is a hand embroidered MH on the bottom of one leg the H stands for Hamilton, probably stitched on by the lady herself. The needlework is VERY fine as these belonged to a person of wealth, the stitches are so incredibly tiny you need magnification to see them. There is a fine hand embroidered cord on each side (pictured) in which to put a pretty ribbon, the single button closure is mother of pearl. These pantaloons are in excellent condition, they are strong and appear to have been seldom used, one could wear them today. |
