<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BMRT, post: 1529841, member: 10892&quot;]While out antique/vintage hunting this afternoon I went out to a neighboring city and visited a mall I’ve never been in.</p><p><br /></p><p>It’s a standard location full of a mix of booths and items. In one stall I found a dress-robe looking piece which I feel would be best described as a Kaftan. Long, up to the neck, long sleeves and slits up the sides. The front allowed it to be fastened from neck to hem in small cloth buttons. It was a thick heavy material and looked of silver/grey silk with heavy silver and gold threading especially embellishing the sleeves, neck and hems. I really regret not taking a picture of the item. The one tag I was able to find before I was crowded out of the booth said Jean Louis. I haven’t done my research on who that is yet since I’m not home on my big computer.</p><p><br /></p><p>The asking price was $40. One thing to note was a weird off-yellow looking stain on the inside of the robe/dress. It looked almost like rust but it’s not visible on the outside. Is there anyway of removing something like this from silk?</p><p><br /></p><p>I’ve had a quiet regret of not bringing it with me. Is this worth an hour drive to find it again and pick up in your opinions?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
