I've made these lavender sachets using an old pattern from a sewing kit. The fabric at the front was saved from an antique vestment and is silk and metal thread brocade in creme and gold. The backs are a heavy woven silver lame fabric. Tightly stuffed to give the sachet a robust romantic look. At the top is a white metallic silver metallic twist cord so the sachet can easily be hung. Photos are a good representation of actual color.
Measurements
From top to bottom
18 cm
The width across the widest points is
12 cm
Condition
The silk brocades are old and I have stabilized the fabrics with a backing in order to assure that the sachet will last for years to come. All fabrics do show slight signs of age. You will see in the photos that the front is actually two pieces of the same fabric seamed together. I puposely wanted to stay true to their age and try not to over repair or overclean. I wanted to keep them old and authentic looking.
