Reduced Antique Linen Sheet Heavy Vintage Bed Header Vivid Embroidery Traditional French Bed
$112.94
Antique Belgian Linen (heavy) Sheet which has an embroidered linen panel at the header. It’s been stored for many years but never used, and is still nicely thick, crisp and stiff with "size" and of a darker oatmeal colour it will eventually lighten and soften with use and washing.
The embroidered panel is linen-Please see photos
Above this is a row of jours on a double hem. The hours are wide enough to weave silk ribbon through
This is one stunningly beautiful sheet. Originally they would have been used as both a bed sheet or a bathing sheet. These were placed into the copper bath tub to protect the bather from the heat of the fires underneath.
The sheet itself is a lovely mid oatmeal colour with flecks of a lighter butter cream.
The fabric isn’t refined but has some darker husks, nobbles and raised runs within the weave-please see photos
It measures;
80” wide
114” length
The linen panel is 4” deep
The outer edges are loom finished. The top and bottom gems are hand stitched
It would make an excellent bed sheet or a warm curtain lining for boutique bedroom.
These sheets look equally well as a drape, a door curtain or window blind, due in part to their weight, thickness and stiffening.
The fabric weighs a tad under 2k
I have recently purchased this direct from an antique fabric dealer. I had intended to upholster a chair, but it’s sacrilege to cut it up as it’s such a wonderful fabric.
Kindly drop me a line should you require further assistance.
