EDITORS COMMENTS
This trade card from the 19th century showcases the craftsmanship of Pitter & Fox, esteemed gold and silver laceman and embroiderers. The intricate engraving, executed by Silvester & Co, beautifully highlights their expertise in creating exquisite textiles. The image is a visual feast for the eyes, featuring an array of elements that tell a story of elegance and prestige. A coat of arms proudly displays regal symbols such as a lion and unicorn, symbolizing strength and nobility. Delicate knots and plates adorn garments with meticulous detail, showcasing the mastery of embroidery techniques. The presence of swords suggests a connection to military attire or perhaps even ceremonial dress worn by high-ranking officials. Epaulettes made from shimmering gold and silver add an extra touch of opulence to these garments. As we delve into this historical snapshot, it becomes apparent that Pitter & Fox's creations were not limited to one specific clientele. Their work catered to various social classes - from naval officers donning elaborate belts adorned with ornate lace to common folk seeking quality clothing. This print offers us a glimpse into 19th-century fashion trends while also highlighting the significance placed on skilled artisans like Pitter & Fox during this era. It serves as a reminder that behind every garment lies countless hours of dedication and artistry passed down through generations.
