EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the image of a baby boy wrapped snugly in a delicate tippet, a narrow scarf that was a popular accessory for infants during the Victorian era. Dated 1864, this tippet is made of white single Berlin wool and features a tricot needle stitch, giving it a textured and elegant appearance. The scarf is lined with a piece of white sarcenet, a type of fine, smooth silk or silk-like fabric, providing an extra layer of warmth and softness against the baby's skin. The tippet is fastened at the neck with two buttons, each adorned with an elastic loop to ensure a secure fit. The use of buttons instead of a more traditional clasp or pin was a common design feature for baby garments during this time, as they were considered safer and more practical. The Victorian era, known for its emphasis on elegance and refinement, is evident in the intricate details of this tippet. The use of high-quality materials, such as Berlin wool and sarcenet, and the attention to detail in the stitching, demonstrate the care and craftsmanship that went into creating such garments for infants during this time. The tippet is a testament to the importance of dressing infants in stylish and comfortable clothing during the Victorian era. It is a reminder of the love and care that parents and caregivers showed towards their children, as they sought to provide them with the best possible garments to keep them warm and protected. This precious artifact offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich history of baby clothing and the evolution of fashion through the centuries.
