Physical Description
This smock is an exact copy of a Warwickshire Wedding smock made in the early part of the 19th century. The embroidery which is worked on the collar and side panels is typical of this County. The smock is made in the traditional manner so that back and front are exactly the same, and the garment can be worn either way. The sleeve openings fasten with beautiful little handmade dorset buttons
