Beautiful soft blue vintage ticking. 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, light weight and extra soft! On this delicious damask material we see vegetable garlands, bouquets of roses and friendly Cupids throw their arrows. The white thread of the frame is silky and gives the fabric a special shine.

ROSARIO SAYS: “By areas you can see the intense blue color that it should have been. The color has suffered and has worn away, but the effects achieved are wonderful. Time has been giving it a more beautiful color patina than if it were the intact color "
