- An extraordinary find! Magnificent Finnish mattress cover made of very rustic and thick linen (linen tow) with longitudinal red, blue and off-white stripes. Woven on a handloom 58 cm wide, so the complete mattress has two long longitudinal pieces joined together. It is a piece from the early 1900s.
ROSARIO SAYS: “This mattress is sewn on three sides, leaving one open to be filled. It has not been used. It is a wonderful fabric. A true collector's piece.!!! “A luxury to have this unique piece.”
The term "tow" refers to the shorter flax fibers left over from the spinning process. Threads and fabrics made from tow fibers are usually thicker and more rustic in nature.
