Description: I am currently working on selling off folk art, textiles, and books from three different collector estates that have all asked me for help at the same time. Due to the volume of items, my descriptions over the coming months will be shorter that usual, but my commitment to accurately representing everything that I sell remains. Please review all of the photos before bidding. If you have any questions about any of the items for sale, please don't hesitate to contact me and I'll be more than happy to answer in more detail directly. Since the quantity of items is so high, everything will be listed for sale at very attractive prices, well below retail. If you are interested in folk art and textiles you will want to check my auctions daily for new, affordable treasures. This auction is for a brand new/unworn Hungarian embroidered blouse. The blouse is new, but there is a tiny amount of faint color bleeding around the embroidery from being in storage. This is not really noticeable in regular daylight, but with reduced contrast it shows up as a faint haziness. I tried to show this in the last two close-up photos, but even there I can't make it show up in the photos, but in person you might notice it. The blouse has the original tags, marked size L. It measures 22" across the front and 26" long. The fiber content is listed on the tag shown in the photos. The sleeve inseam is 19.5". The style of embroidery is what's known as Hódmezővásárhelyi hímzés, after the town of Hódmezővásárhely, or as Kun hímzés (Cuman embroidery). You can find a lot of information about the Cuman people and this style of embroidery online. It's one of the distinct styles of Hungarian embroidery. This would be a beautiful garment to wear to any Hungarian heritage events or casually around town.
