I am trying to upload an dress model but it doesn.t work or me, will keep trying and place it .
Hi Ingrid, these are nice! Good to know that they are sewn on dresses, otherwise I would not have known. In fact I have a piece (short and Aluminium) of such....... I did not know they were sewn on cloth (dresses). Learning again!!! If you can add the dress model, this would be great.
Ingrid, I was intrigued by this. Are the chains very light? I wondered if they pulled the soft cotton out of shape?
They are proper silver eight so not too light in weight. But htey are fixe on the edge of the emsolid embroidery. Thank you Thelma for showing your interest.
Wow, that is fascinating information, Ingrid. I can imagine this well. You would not happen to have a picture of such a wedding dress being worn? How long are the chains in your photo? They must be incredible rare...
Betty and Thelma,These pieces were made by the meter as ordered, I have four pieces of about 60 cm in length each and they had fitted a lock on it to wear it as a necklace. I tried to down load two dresses from the pinterest page, but it refuses to be downloaded. Will try to find it from another page tomorrow. GR. Ingrid.
Ingrid, are these similar silver chain pieces that can be found on this glorious 19th century robe from Ethiopia, that is part of the British Museum collection?
@Zambezi, this robe looks spectacular!!! very impressive, thanks for posting!
Ingrid, I think this photo shows these beads ... sorry cannot tell you who the photographer or the model is as I found it on Tumblr with no link or information.
Eva Baby, glad you also found this robe spectacular.
