Very unusual, opened out vintage linen mattress cover. 3 sets of wide blue tripes at each end. Red bordered taupe and ivory stripes. Fine silky twill weave
Lovely home loomed vintage linen, Two panels hand sewn together. If opened out this would make a great table cloth or upholstery material.
All our vintage fabrics are hand loomed, mostly from hemp or linen. They range in age, nearly all will be pre 1950s and many of them much older, most at least 70 years old.
The hand looming of fabric was a very labour intensive process and each roll took many hours to make. Home loomed fabric has a wonderful texture.
When you buy this fabric you really are buying a piece of history. Most of this fabric has been stored in rolls for many many years and inevitably have storage marks. We wash all fabric lengths before despatching.
