Antique French Ribbonwork Rose Applique | Original American Sales Card flower decoration Made in USA in HolyokeStill on its original card and dating to around 1920 1930, here's a vintage floral applique floral embellishment ribbon flower that would have been applied to any manner of items, including "garters and lingerie".
