Size: 100 inches x 70 inches (approx. 254 cm x 183 cm)
Construction: Formed of two 35-inch-wide panels joined selvage-to-selvage by hand.
Weave: Heavy, thick, rustic homespun flax/linen with excellent weight.
Monogram: None
Condition Report : UNWASHED / AS FOUND.
The fabric is structurally excellent, heavy, and very strong with no dry rot. Because it has not been laundered, it currently has some typical dusty storage scuffs, faint fold lines, and minor storage marks.
Note for Buyers: I have left this piece entirely original to preserve its history and integrity. It will benefit beautifully from a traditional oxy-soak or sun-bleach if you wish to clean it, or it can be used raw for rustic upholstery and craft projects.Uses:
Ideal for historical upholstery, heavy rustic curtains, cushions, or for collectors of raw, unmanipulated antique European textiles.
