This shirt is made from a filet lace tablecloth, circa 1920s-1940s. Filet lace is built off a knotted net base, which is then embroidered or darned to create patterns. The technique is thought to have originated in fishing communities who adapted their practical net-making for decorative use. Hand-mending throughout. All wear, mending, and idiosyncrasies are unique to the original textile.
