An oh so fun! lipstick towel, hand embroidered with a Scottish terrier. Lipstick towels were made between 1925 1965 and were used for lipstick blotting. So as not to leave stains they were always made from red fabric. This one measures 12 x 8.5 and is linen with cotton embroidery. The hem is machine finished an a little lax in one corner (top right see pics). I dont believe it was ever used.
Freshly laundered, blocked and pressed. Excellent condition
