Scalloped floral lace runs across the neckline in pointed panels, while larger lace inserts open through the lower portion of the garment and continue around the hem.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe colour is particularly special: a vivid \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003echartreuse yellow-green\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e with considerable tonal variation throughout. The dye appears uneven and hand-worked, creating areas that shift from almost lemon yellow to deeper greenish chartreuse. Together with the darker markings and accumulated wear, it gives the silk an extraordinary distressed quality that feels surprisingly contemporary.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is very much an antique piece with a visible history rather than pristine archival lingerie. For us, that patina is a huge part of its appeal — the kind of irregular colour, fading and surface character that would be almost impossible to reproduce convincingly in a modern garment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWorn antique condition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, fully reflected in the price.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere is significant variation and patchiness to the colour, along with darker, almost ink-like staining beneath the arms and other general marks and signs of age throughout. The fine shoulder straps have been repaired and may benefit from replacement in the future. There is additional general wear consistent with the age and delicacy of the silk and lace. The original straps have been replaced.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDespite its visibly worn condition, there are \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eno major holes or tears noted\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and the piece remains wearable with appropriate care. Please purchase expecting an approximately century-old garment with repairs, staining, colour variation and patina rather than a piece in pristine condition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sehnsucht Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54235713569115,"sku":null,"price":68.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/6278\/1531\/files\/C7CE40C0-F440-4BAF-B33F-B631B91D7831.jpg?v=1790948396","url":"https:\/\/www.sehnsuchtcollection.com\/de\/products\/antique-1920s-chartreuse-silk-lingerie-slip-with-lace","provider":"Sehnsucht Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
