Step into the romance of old Paris with this exquisite bundle of vintage treasures, lovingly gathered from the city’s oldest flea market. Each treasure whispers stories of artistry, elegance, and forgotten beauty, carrying the soul of bygone centuries.
At its heart lies a pair of tiny hand-embroidered gloves dating from the turn of the 20th century, stitched in the exquisite Point Beauvais miniature chain stitch — a delicate embroidery technique once adored by Madame de Pompadour herself at Versailles in the 18th century. The gloves’ fine craft and intricate detail capture the refinement of French savoir-faire and fashion at its most graceful moment. These look absolutely stunning in a box-frame!
Nestled beside them are vintage silk ribbons from Au Ver à Soie, the renowned Parisian silk manufacturer cherished by embroiderers for generations. Three rolls, each two metres long, gleam softly in nostalgic shades — hues reminiscent of faded powder boxes, rose salons, and old ballet slippers.
A 1920s French button card adds a touch of glamour to the collection, featuring mother-of-pearl, rhinestone, or delicately cast resin buttons, still shimmering with the allure of the Art Deco era. Each button is a tiny jewel, a testament to the refinement of French couture detailing.
To complete this bundle of memories, a small selection of gorgeous vintage postcards — souvenirs of Paris in its golden age — evoke the elegance of café terraces, the laughter of boulevards, and the soft glow of lamps along the Seine.
Together, these romantic vintage treasures are tangible fragments of Parisian artistry, perfect for collectors, creatives, and lovers of fine, beautiful needlework.
