Period Clothing - Eighteenth Century
Pyatt's Herbs & More offers a selection of Colonial period clothing. All items are made of 100% cotton unless otherwise stated, using colors and patterns carefully selected to reflect the time period. Inside or unseen seams are made by machine; top stitching and other outwardly visible seams are sewn by hand. Items made from linen or wool are available on request (and will require a higher price).
The items and sizes shown below are those which I have on hand at present. What is displayed here will change from time to time, since all items are made individually. Items and sizes not shown below may be specially ordered.
