Features long sleeves with gussets to underarms and cuffs edged in hand embroidery that is so neat you need a loupe to really appreciate it. The neck, reinforced shoulders and placket are trimmed in hand tatted lace. The button holes are also hand stitched and close with shell buttons. The cuff buttons are either china or glass. This is in excellent robust condition for its age.
The fabric is true linen so not a pure white and has irregularities to the colour, which is natural as is the slub texture.
A beautiful piece of history from Dickens's time that should last another hundred years.
