This robe is beautifully constructed of fine, sheer silk (sa) suitable for summer weather. The front and back of the robe is made of a very pale green color with gold weaving over red lining which shows through for a lovely effect. The striped panels on the sleeves are various colors of silk ending with sheer white cuffs.Age: Early 20th centuryDimensions: 44″ high x 75″ long
