DESCRIPTION:
|
These Handkerchiefs are embroidered, like those found in a bridal trousseau.
Trousseaus always have handkerchiefs, And they have lace handkerchiefs which are saved for special occasions.
But then, bones have been sewn into them.
I remember the child's game of pulling the wishbone of a chicken; the one who got the longest piece could make a wish.
(quoted from catalogue) Louise Bourgeois
