This lot consists of two vintage aprons representing mid-to-late 20th-century domestic textile styles. The first is a waist-length half-apron featuring a multi-panel construction. The lower section is composed of solid magenta-pink cotton, while the upper section consists of a geometric floral print in shades of purple, yellow, and black. Horizontal bands of orange and light blue ribbon trim separate the sections. A single patch pocket on the right side is embellished with matching ribbon stripes, and the bottom hem is finished with yellow bias tape. The garment is secured by long self-fabric ties at the waist. The second item is a full-length bib-style apron featuring a white field printed with teapots and pitchers filled with floral bouquets. It includes a detachable bib section in a coordinating small-scale floral print, edged with light blue lace. The bib attaches to a pink gingham-check waistband using four silver-tone metal snap fasteners. The skirt is gathered at the waist and features a wide light blue lace ruffle along the hem. It fastens with pink gingham-check ties at the neck and waist. Length (magenta apron): approx. 51 cm (20 inches), measured against a ruler. Condition: Both aprons are in good vintage condition, exhibiting typical signs of light domestic use and aging. There is no visible structural damage, tearing, or significant staining.
