Description

These evening wear items belonged to my mother, who wore them in the 1950s and early 1960s. There is a pair of opera length gloves. There is no label, so I don't know the size, but my mother had small hands. The gloves were stored in a satin envelope, which is included here. There are no stains or imperfections on this piece. The beaded clutch is in very good condition. There are a few tiny stains on the back, and a few of the tiny pearls have come loose or are missing. I love seeing photos of my mother when she was dressed for the evening, and I have memories of her and my dad going out all dressed up when I was a young child. As difficult as it is to part with these memories, it's time to downsize. I hope that someone else will find some joy in these lovely items, so reminiscent of a different time. Please feel free to ask any questions.
