Confessions of a Hanky Hoarder

Lacy white wedding hanky

This is a positively gorgeous 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" vintage white wedding hanky. The 5-3/4" x 5-3/4" center square is gauze-like white cotton, surrounded on all four sides by a 2-1/2" lacy border that includes five roses with stem and leaves. Pristine unused condition with no holes, rips, stains, or discoloration. I didn’t have to wash and iron this one because its been carefully folded and stored in a little plastic bag for who knows how long, and that’s how it will come to you!

Flowers and lace hanky

This is a very old 10-1/2" x 10-1/2" hanky made of gauze-like white cotton with beautiful little embroidered gray roses and lace around all four edges.

Dangling cherries hanky

This unusual 11" x 11" vintage hanky is made of gauze-like white cotton. All four scalloped corners are embroidered in red. One corner features an embroidered green leaf and brown stem from which dangle three little deep pink pillow cherries. Two additional corners feature a similar leaf and stem with two dangling cherries, and the fourth corner features the leaf and stem with a single dangling cherry. Perfect condition with no holes, rips, or stains. This hanky has been folded for who knows how many decades and there is very slight discoloration at some of the folds that will probably wash and/or soak out. I didn’t try to launder this one because I feared for the dangling cherries! (Click on picture for more images.) Tell a friend.
