Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:19174681 |
Here's a wonderful opportunity to get 6pcs of 100 year old tassels for a VERY good price.
They have been sitting in boxes since they were shipped to my grandfather, so they have never been used. They come from France bound in thread in several places, however when you cut away the thread, since they have been unwrapped up for so long, they have taken on the indent from where t...hey have been secured.
They are not damaged, or ripped just curved/wavy in some places and as you can see they have this wonderful patina. However, as they were sitting in one position for so long , the patina is not even around the whole tassel. I have shown a picture of what you can expect.
They measure approx. 5"- 5 1/2" from the top - excluding the loop. You will get 6 tassels at this price.
Originally used for ecclesiastical purposes , military uniforms, and home dec, they would be wonderful on lampshades, for pillows or as a key tassel.The tassels are almost 100 years old & are meant for decorative uses only. Anything else is at your own risk. They are not meant to be used on clothing, nor pulled on, yanked or washed & need to be handled with care.
This item is original antique stock from the archives of Tinsel Trading, in NY, which was founded by my grandfather in 1933. I am constantly adding ribbons, trims, tassels, cords, fringes and more, some dating back as far as 1880's.Keep checking back!! I combine shipping
