Apron

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Off-white apron with a wide decorative lace trim on the left side. The lace features a floral pattern with a scalloped edge. The rest of the apron has a simple off-white trim along the bottom edge, also scalloped. The fabric appears to be a lightweight material, possibly linen. The apron is rectangular with slightly curved top edge. It has a few small stains and a small white tag near the bottom right corner. The background is solid black.
