| Description: | |
| 13 star antique American flag ribbon, made of woven silk, of the type encountered in military, political, and fraternal badges and ribbons during the last quarter of the 19th century, circa 1876-1900. Also sometimes simply worn on a lapel, or elsewhere, with a hat pin, these can be encountered as late as roughly 1910. Mounting: Hand-stitched to 100% hemp fabric, ivory in color. The mount was placed in a silver gilt molding with gold overtones, embossed, floriated scrollwork, and a distressed surface, to which a rippled profile molding, black with silver highlights, was added as a liner. Spacers keep the textile away from the glazing, which is U.V. protective glass. |
