Ñanduti Handkerchief

16" square
Excellent condition, looks unused. Horizontal and vertical handkerchief creases.

A Ñanduti handkerchief of very high quality. The lace is cotton, the center is silk. The semicircles around the edge are particularly unusual, a subsitute for the typical palm leaf motif. This probably dates from the 1950's.
