Old Romanian folk costume from Oltenia size M, consisting of 4 pieces: handmade Romanian folk blouse , traditional skirt with old hand-made lace, old wool handmade skirt and belt.
1. Old traditional Romanian hand-made blouse hand embroidered with multicolored embroidery on comercial cotton cloth from the trade. This traditional Romanian shirt is extended with a similar canvas. Decorated with handmade crochet on the sleeves.
A small repair or a defect in the canvas, I can't tell, a little bigger than the size of a needle (see the last picture). It has no other defects. Clean, ready to wear.

3. Very old hand-woven omanian wool skirt with multi-colored fine cotton thread embroidery around hem . The background is black with thin dark gray vertical stripes.

The red satin ribbon around the hem is new.
Condition: good, with signs of wear. It is faded and the right side is more faded than the left. Now this more discolored part is covered by the other part. This is washed, professionally cleaned, ready to be worn. It can be seen that it is an old folk skirt and that does not alter its beauty in any way.
It must by only dry cleaned .
