Four pieces of skirt flounce of silk thread and straw embroidered organdie. The embroidery is composed of flowers, leaves and stems in satin stitch shading with green, red, and mauve silk, while straw ears and stalks are worked in satin stitch with natural straw splints. The scalloped border of the flounces is edged with straw splints in satin stitch. Two of the four pieces have a slightly larger, more spaced out embroidered pattern than the other two, indicating that originally the four pieces were made into two flounces, one above the other on the skirt.

  • Several museums around Europe have examples of straw embroidered skirt panels and flounces from the 19th century. This 'eccentric' use of straw was probably never carried out extensively, but was a well-known type of decoration on fashionable dress for about 100 years, from about 1775 to the 1870s. The embroidery on these four organdie flounces is composed of flowers, leaves and stems embroidered in satin stich shading with red, green and mauve silk, while the straw ears, stalks and edge of the border are worked in satin stitch with straw splints.
