more photos of this product below
Late 1800s antique print cotton fabric, quilting or dress weight, very
nice. This is 24" wide x 5 yards, one continuous length with old paper
label. There's a little bit of fading to the label and the outside
folds, but overall, this looks very good.
This fabric is out of a whole cellar full of beautiful old textiles we
purchased recently... including some very unusual and hard to find
fabrics. This was stored away since around WWII, untouched since the
1940s.
Most of this material does have age related foxing (it was carefully
stored, wrapped in paper or tissue, which no one expected at that time
to lead to foxing later!). There's discoloration to edges and outer
folds and fold lines on this fabric.
It's never been laundered, and we haven't washed or soaked it. It might
clean up with a good wash, but we'll leave that up to you!
