This bodice circa late 1890s (around 1897) is a very special piece, likely best for study or display due to its condition. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe fabric is woven with different colored yarns to create the moon pattern. It feels like a wool or wool blend. It is trimmed with black silk and lined with polished cotton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is heavily padded in and around the bust and underarms. Interestingly, the boning is inside the lining. There is an inner waistband but it is missing the hook and eye closure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe front of the bodice closes with hooks and eyes down the center. There is a beaded lace overlay. Beneath that there is evidence of a cream colored silk lining, which has since disintegrated and is mostly gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA very fine, unique piece, and an excellent addition to a collection!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-single__description rte\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e+++ Measurements +++\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate 30\" bust and 22\" waist\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e+++ Condition +++\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCondition is fair.
