New! Regency Clocked Silk Stockings ~ Black

These historically accurate Regency Clocked Silk Stockings have a beautiful clocking pattern on both sides of each ankle, are thigh high, and are made of a very fine silk knit.  Extremely soft, lightweight and comfortable to wear!   Historical Note:  "Lace clocks" were a result of various attempts by hosiers in the 1760s to create an openwork fabric, which led to lace clocks, then to machine-made lace. Lace had for centuries been made only by hand. A form of lace was produced on a stocking frame around 1769.   Available in Silver Grey, Black, or Cream.   Silk Knit.  One size fits most.  Made in the USA.   (Note: Stockings can only be returned in new condition)
