When a child made their First Communion the boys wore a stain bow on their arm.
Often they were made by someone in the family. Crochet, or lace work fringes. Up by the bow there is a strap that wraps around the arm. I don't know what the meaning for these bows represented.
19th century First communion armbands, each slightly different, but very much the same.
45 euro ($66) includes international postage and tax.
