| Handmade antique Irish Carrickmacross wedding veil Cathedral length circa 1830-50. This light cream or ivory lace veil measures 138 inches long from the comb to the end of the train, the bottom of the train is 54 inches wide and the 3 tiered part is 24 inches deep, the blusher(top part that can either be worn over the face or folded over the head to the back) is 23 inches deep and the 2nd tier under the blusher is 39 inches long and 46 inches wide. There is a center seam on the train, but it does not detract at all from the beauty of this veil and is not all that unusual in an antique veil, all the stitching is done b hand. The lace is made by using a machine made net and HAND stitching the designs to the netting using thousands of teensy little stitches, gorgeous design, I love the feathery designs on the second tier! The veil was made using 3 different pieces of this handmade lace to create the veil, the designs all work very nicely together. The veil comes with the comb attached so its ready to use, if the silk fabric (which is new fabric, as is the comb) on the comb is the wrong color, it can be removed and replaced with new fabric, or of course a different comb could be exchanged by a competent seamstress. The 2nd tier has 2 small expertly hand done repairs, one is pea size and the other a tad larger, the gown is otherwise in excellent condition. This is a lovely antique veil in the very difficult to find cathedral length. This veil has been cleaned, it will need touch up pressing before use, the color in the close-up pictures is the most accurate. |
