This spectacular late 1910s - 1920 Egyptian hammered silver Assiut kaftan is a rare and extremely collectable piece. The line of the kaftan is soft and fluid with long wide set sleeves and full volumes of fabric that flare out from the bust with an ankle length hemline. The gold tinted silver-work is arranged in meticulous detail into a bold geometric textile and vertical linear design. Made to be loose fitting this sensational piece is for the serious collector and would best suit a US size 4-6, UK size 8-10 due to the petite bust measurement. In absolutely beautiful antique condition, we have counted around half a dozen tiny to small beaks in the tulle to side and back panels which in no way detract from this important antique textile. They are very hard to spot except on close inspection and are difficult to photograph. We have priced to reflect this. Sleeve measurement - 28.5" This kaftan pre-dates 1922 with the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb and the subsequent years when the fashion for all things Egyptian reached its zenith until 1926. Many later 1920s Assiut fabrics feature coptic symbols which is indicative of fabric produced for export. Assiut fabric was fashioned into exotic shawls, dresses and jackets during the flapper era worldwide and demand was insatiable. This ancient metal...
