These stays are in my private collection and they will be the focus of an in depth study on stays on this blog. These stays are professionally constructed by a professional staymaker and have a New England provenance.Private Collection, Hallie Larkin
I was curious if you had a chance to make more observations on these stays. I am researching a set like this to make for myself as a representations from the Albany, NY area mid 18th century, and I was wondering if you had any specifics about the construction that you would be willing to share.
