Category: Accessories > Suit & Tie Accessories > Pocket Squares (Alternative: Weddings > Accessories > Handkerchiefs)

Brand: Artisanal / Family Heirloom

Era: 1910s - 1930s (Confirmed by the style of the accompanying photograph)

Materials: Fine Linen, Sol Lace, Embroidery Thread, Handmade Lace

Condition: Excellent antique condition. The linen is crisp and white. Only a few tiny age-related storage spots are visible (see macro photos), which do not detract from its beauty.

Description: An exceptional piece of Spanish textile history. This fine linen handkerchief features a wide, intricate border of handmade Sol lace (also known as Tenerife lace or Encaje de Soles), characterized by its stunning sunburst patterns.
In the corner, the name "Mercedes" is delicately hand-embroidered in silk thread, accompanied by a small floral sprig. This handkerchief is a true survivor from a bygone era, likely part of a bridal trousseau. It is a perfect "something old" for a modern bride, a gift for someone named Mercedes, or a prized addition to an antique lace collection.
