Beautiful vintage ticking in olive green with a motif of large white flowers that look like chrysanthemums. It is a European damask fabric from around 1930. This fabric made of cotton. Dahlias and chrysanthemums appear in many Japanese motifs, a very fashionable representation of 1900 in Europe. (Art Nouveau, Modernisme). The chrysanthemum is one of the symbols of Japan.
