1930s–40s Hand-Crocheted Irish Lace Jacket — Antique Ivory Floral Jaclet-30AW

Be different. Wear UNIQUE, QUALITY items ! Mix it!

 An exquisite hand-crocheted lace jacket dating to the late 1930s–early 1940s, created entirely by hand using fine ivory cotton thread. This piece features delicate Irish-style floral motifs worked in dimensional crochet lace — a labor-intensive technique that requires extraordinary skill and countless hours of needlework.

The silhouette reflects the elegant, relaxed lines of the pre-war era: a soft V-neckline, straight draped body, and gently tapered sleeves. Unlike Edwardian lace boleros, this jacket was designed to be worn over fluid dresses and evening gowns of the late 30s and early 40s — giving it a uniquely timeless and wearable shape today.

The button placket is finished with matching hand-crocheted covered buttons, a rare detail that shows the maker’s dedication to harmony and craftsmanship. The ivory tone is soft and natural, not stark white, adding to its antique charm.

Beautifully preserved this is a true heirloom-quality lace piece, wearable, collectible, and museum-worthy.

Perfect as a bridal topper, a romantic lace layer, or the kind of rare vintage treasure that feels equally at home in an editorial, a ceremony, or a carefully curated wardrobe.

PLEASE CHECK MEASUREMENTS BEFORE PURCHASE! Antique hand made items where handmade and differ to standard sizes. Please check the measurements closely for determining fit. I do not give sizes for vintage items as women's sizes are not standardized and a majority of these dresses were homemade or specialty made to fit one person. Also if vintage items are size tagged they usually run smalller comparing to the actual sizes. A good method to check is to measure a similar item that fits and compare.
If you have any questions about the fit feel free to ask, I am happy to help.

Please Note :
Any accessories used in the picture are not included, there are there to show how the outfit could be worn or a decorative object. I need to be honest. I sell Vintage and Antique Clothing and I would say anything before 30s should be treated with care and worn with care. Mostly these items will be fragile especially 20s silk or Edwardian very fine Muslin. Some can not handle stress and will tear easily. Should be bought a size bigger where possible or should be a little loose on.

Things to consider when buying Edwardian or Victorian clothing:If an item is marked XS but looks loose and big! It maybe has a Medium Shoulder and Hip but the waist is Tiny! (Corsets!). It may look big and loose but the shoulders or opening of the arm will be small, or the waist.
- The sleeves may not be long to the wrist but more of a 3/4.
- Buttons also may vary in shape and size on the same blouse, these blouses are old and would have lost buttons along the way.

Happy to answer any question.
