Welcome to ~FRENCH VINTAGE LINENS AND ANTIQUES~ W You Will Find Beautiful & Unusual Vintage Linens and Apparel from France ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ French Vintage Night Dress with Broderie Anglaise ~ This is a Hand Embroidered French night gown entirely handmade of the very finest light weight linen. This linen is silky and 'fluid' to the touch--wonderful for summer wear. This lovely gown features a neckline and arm openings edged in exquisite and richly worked Hand Embroidered Lace ('Broderie Anglaise' the French call this type of embroidery which translates to 'English-style Embroidery'). Across the bodice is row after row of tiny pin tucks alternating with rows of open feather-stitching all in tiny, tiny handworked stitches-- just a remarkable display to fine French needlework. Finally t is a tiny monogram in elegant script which reads A R. All the handwork is perfectly executed making a lovely feminine gown. This gown is in superb vintage condition with no stains or signs of wear. It measures 44 inches long from shoulder to hem and 19 inches across at the underarm. It has a generously flared cut. What a special indulgence for yourself or perhaps it would make an exceptional gift for a new bride or expectant mother--or your best friend. FVL#0203 ******************************* ~Please take time to read our new Shipping and Insurance Information~ Shipping and Insurance: The cost for this item to the US and Canada is $15.00. We ship by French Priority Airmail worldwide and although French postal charges went up on March 1, we have not increased our standard shipping charges. We make every effort to charge the actual cost with a tiny percentage for packing and handling, but because the dollar/euro exchange rate constantly flucuates it is impossible to be absolutely precise. Shipping by French Priority Airmail has been 100% reliable so far. Very few of our clients actually request insurance and to date, all the items we have shipped in France and abroad have arrived. So we think the French postal service is wonderful in every way except one. Insurance costs for items like this are absurdly high. The Standard Flat Rate for insuring an item like this- up to one kilo (a little over 2 lbs)- is 21 euros, (even though that does include postage as well), or over $31.00!--for up to 2 kilos it is nearly $40.00. We know this to be unacceptable to our clients, so we now propose this. We ourselves will offer Optional Insurance for a flat rate of $4.00 per parcel up to 2 kilos and with a value up to $200.00.* This means that we agree to refund your full purchase price if you inform us that you have not received your parcel within 21 days of being notified that your parcel has been shipped. Shipping charges would remain the purchasers responsibility. Because eBay is so much based on trust, we feel that this is in the eBay spirit. Naturally if you do not opt for official French insurance or our optional insurance, we cannot be responsible for loss or damage in transit to your purchase. But again may I emphasize that we have had 100% success with French shipping and that the majority of our clients do not request insurance. *For heavier parcels or parcels of greater value, request rates. We wish it were less expensive to ship from Europe to the US, Canada, Japan and other international destinations, but we charge rates that reflect our actual costs, often-times absorbing some of the shipping costs ourselves. It has been from the beginning, and continues to be, our policy not to profit on shipping charges and to keep them as reasonable as possible. Returns: We hope, and even expect, that you will be satisfied with your purchase, but if for any reason you are not, please return the item in described condition within 14 days of receipt for a full refund of the purchase price.
