Women's 19th Century Extra Long Sleeve Insert Shirt in La Colombina Silk

Geoffrey B. Small 19th century extra long sleeve insert shirt in Colombina silk.

One of a kind, hand made exclusively for Blue Mountain School.

Created from Small's extensive tailoring research using a 19th-century French shirt pattern, cut by hand using hand woven silk and cotton melange fabric created exclusively for Small by Tessitura La Colombina in Badoere di Morgano on an 18th-century wooden handloom.

Features clean-finished French-seamed interior construction, Corozo nut buttons created especially for Small by Bottonifico Finazzi in Bergamo, and hand stitched buttonholes in pure silk Bozzolo Reale Milano Seta thread, each one requiring at least 8-10 minutes to cut and sew.

Individually dyed by hand in Small's workrooms using a process that requires over eight hours to achieve its unique colour and patina.

Hand signed and numbered by the designer.
