Beautiful vintage ticking in green. It is a European damask fabric from around 1920. This textile, recovered and freshly washed, was part of a mattress cover. This fabric is cotton, lightweight and extra soft! On a delicious damask fabric we see vegetable garlands, bouquets of roses and some friendly Cupids shoot their arrows. The white thread of the weft is neat and gives the fabric a special shine.

ROSARIO SAYS: “The color has suffered and has worn away, but the effects achieved are wonderful. Time has been giving a more beautiful color patina than if it were the intact color "

MEASUREMENTS
30 cm wide × 160 cm long (12" × 63" / 1.75 yards)

CONDITION
Fair condition. Only light wear consistent with age and history but has no structural issues. Minor color fading or discoloration towards the side seams. One intact selvage. No eyelets. A very rare find. This panel is two pieces joined with a seam towards the middle. The cupid pattern is repeated several times. Exceptional!
