Salvaged from an early 1920s black satin weighted silk dress that could not be saved, this exquisite beaded panel remains a breathtaking example of Jazz Age craftsmanship. Heavily embellished and richly textured, it’s likely Parisian-influenced—reflecting the era’s fascination with French couture and the elegant, modern silhouette of the flapper.
In the 1920s, detailed beaded panels like this were often sold individually for dressmaking at home, allowing fashion-forward women to create their gowns with a touch of designer flair. Whether you're a creator looking to build something new, a restorer breathing life into a vintage project, or a textile collector in search of a rare gem, this panel tells a story that’s both timeless and inspiring.
Measures approximately 33" in length, 14" at the hem, and 13" at the top.
In the antique textile business, ragpickers call these kinds of finds "cutters". Why? Because they are cut off and saved from destruction.
