Exquisite craftsmanship on our handmade complete folk costume from Romania. This vintage Romanian peasant costume is a true gem, consisting of a charming dress and a delightful pair of aprons.
Originating from the Oltenia region, this authentic Romanian peasant costume is a testament to our rich cultural heritage. The ensemble comprises two remarkable pieces: a meticulously handcrafted ethnic dress and a pair of intricately hand-woven traditional aprons.
The dress, estimated to be 60-80 years old, showcases remarkable artistry with its black cotton thread intricately woven onto a white hand-woven linen fabric. While the linen may have some imperfections here and there, it adds character to this well-preserved dress, which was lovingly created on a traditional loom. As a delightful touch, green beads embellish the lower hem, enhancing its allure.
The dress has been thoroughly washed, rendering it clean and ready to be cherished.
It boasts a length of 119 cm (46.85 inches), a chest circumference of 130 cm (51.18 inches), and sleeve length, measured from the base of the neck, of 68 cm (26.77 inches). It comfortably fits sizes M to L, and even XL.
Additionally, the costume includes a pair of aprons that are a testament to age-old craftsmanship. Hand-woven with a delightful blend of black, green, and brown cotton threads, these aprons radiate timeless elegance.
With an age surpassing 80 to 90 years, they have been impeccably preserved. Measuring 78 x 40 cm (30.70 x 15.74 inches), they perfectly complement the dress.
The aprons feature an exquisite weave, in which golden threads have been thoughtfully incorporated, adding a touch of opulence. Notably, they are in very good condition, free from tears, holes, and stains, ensuring their lasting beauty.
Indulge in the enchanting allure of this handmade Romanian folk costume, which beautifully captures the essence of our cultural heritage.
