Beautiful set of Pink Silk ribbon baby or Dolly garters. They are mint in original box and original cellophane packaging.

Included is a lovely pair of long pink silk (or silky rayon... not 100% sure) baby stockings, and two mint in package infant hose. I believe all are from the 1920s or so.

The garters are made of lightweight pink silk ribbon with what I imagine are hand painted flowers.

There is a small unsigned/unused gift card inside that states, "With Love to the Baby".

The garters are clean and unused and in amazing condition. They come in their original box that has protected them all these decades long now, but the box shows wear as a result.

I am including a wonderful pair of pink silk hosiery that appear unworn and like new but for some light age patina. Please note that although the tops and heels and toes of this matching pair appear to be somewhat dingy, but are clean and my photos grossly exaggerate the appearance; they are quite lovely 'in hand'. Also note the toes, heels and tops are a creamy color instead of pink as designed.

There are also TWO pairs of mint in package pairs of infant doll hosiery -- "Sanitary and Soft to the Skin / Untouched by Human Hands after processing"

Again, my photos want to show they are dingy somewhat... but they are immaculately clean and appear to be as they were 100 years ago.

I cannot measure the two pair in packages, but the pink silky ones are:

Heel to Toe: approx. 4'
Heel to Top: approx. 11-1/2"
Condition: Age and storage soil; unworn and unlaundered

Garters~
Length: 2.5" approx.
