Regency Era Ruffled Sleeve Top
When we say this piece is rare… well. We really mean it.
A bit of a mystery to solve initially, but to the best of our ability we’ve identified this piece to likely be from sometime in the Regency—Georgian era timeframe.
It has remarkable details and we only wish we had come across it sooner in its lifetime before the bottom half was cut.
Nevertheless, these will likely be the sleeves that we dream about for the rest of lives…
Someone should reproduce these.
Intricate covered buttons all original and in tact with vertical pleated ruffles all along the sleeves.

In delicate condition - tears in silk lining at neck and underarm. A few small holes in outer netted fabric at underarms, discoloration at underarms (mostly just visible in the lining), discoloration and tears at front of neck ruffle, and raw edge where dress was cut off into a top.
This piece would be best used as display or study to preserve it and its history and beauty. But it could be very gently worn for photo purposes, though anything more extensive is iladvised.
