The neck-hole, despite the slit down the front, is rather tiny...Breshnay, my seven year old had a hard time getting her head through. Havent yet decided what I will do with this. So for now, it sits in my basket of rags.
The little round mirrors have been stitched on with more finesse and firmness than I've seen in any modern pieces. The mirror bits themselves are of rather good quality--none of the back silver has flaked off. I'm no archaeologist but I'd bet real money that this was embroidered at least over thirty (if not more) years ago.
