Description: Beautiful book featuring the folk costumes of Moravia in the Hodonin/Slovacko region. The book is divided into 15 sections corresponding with the costumes of the ethnographic regions of the area: kroj hornacky, kroj ostrozsky, kroj veselsky, kroj straznicky, kroj rohatecky, kroj jihokyjovsky, kroj mutensko-hovoransky, kroj podluzacky, kroj severokyjovsk, kroj vracovsky, kroj osvetimansko-domaninsky, kroj zeravsky, kroj hanacko-slovacky severni, kroj hanacko-slovacky jizny, and kroj bohuslavsky. There are photos of each district's costumes with short descriptions and captions. A fine reference for any collector of Czech folk costumes.
A note regarding condition: All of the costumes and textiles that I sell are vintage and have typically seen decades of use resulting in expected wear and tear that add to the history and authenticity of each piece. In case of above-average wear, I will mention any significant damages and heavy signs of use. Depending on the age, materials, and condition, I often hand-wash more durable, colorfast cotton and linen textiles, but embellished garments, heavier wool pieces or items made from silk or fine fabrics are sold in the original, unwashed condition. Small holes or stains, missing sequins/beads, worn trim, and other marks related to standard wear are common and do not detract from the value of most pieces. Please keep in mind that a vintage textile or garment in very good condition might still show signs of use, storage and age.
Not sure about the condition? Need more photos? Sure! Etsy allows up to 10 photos online, but I often have more images available so please send an e-mail request for more.
