This stunning photograph captures a piece of history in the form of a woman's dress from Scotland, most likely manufactured in Glasgow around 1863. Made from wool and cotton, this elegant garment showcases intricate tambour-work embroidery in purple and white thread, creating an abstract pattern that adds a touch of sophistication to the light purple fabric.
The high round neckline and loosely pleated bodice lead down to a wide V-shape at the straight waistline, all adorned with tambour-work detailing. The full-length sleeves feature short pointed frills at the shoulders and cuffs, while the skirt boasts a tambour-work border around its lower half.
