Stockings

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Pair of long, cream-colored stockings with black trim at the top and toe. The left stocking has a black panel with small dots on the front, bordered by white stitching in a dotted line pattern and a decorative pointed arch at the top. The right stocking is sheer with a similar decorative pointed arch at the bottom. Both stockings have a seam down the back and appear to be made of silk or stockinette fabric. The background is plain white. Stockings by an unknown artist.
