Victorian Grosgrain Raffia Checkered Brown & Cream Ribbon green Would make a stunning waistAntique French ribbon in a russet brown satin and cream grosgrain check, evenly bordering with a unique woven section made to look like raffia (label says rayon) in a coordinating cream. The ribbon is original to 1900 1930s. Measures 2 3 8" wide. Given the popularity of checks throughout fashion history, this could be used as an addition to a 1920s hat, to a Civil War era bonnet band, or even to a Victorian promenade hat. Very versatile indeed! Note
