Enamel advertising sign for a shop or dressmaking workshop bearing the inscription "Nelly Couture," executed in an elegant handwritten typeface typical of signs for women's trades in the mid-20th century. This type of sign was generally placed on a facade, door, or in a building lobby to indicate a dressmaker's or alterations workshop. The inscription "Cocriamont - Charleroi" refers to a Belgian manufacturer of enamel signs, active particularly between the two World Wars and in the post-war period.
