Beautiful vintage ticking in green. It is a European damask fabric from the 1900s. This textile, recovered and freshly washed, was part of a mattress cover. These fabrics are made of cotton, strong and resistant (but very soft!). Perfect textile for decorative projects, appliques, toiletry bags, cushions, bags, etc. Featuring a pattern of cherry blossom branches and fluttering swallows.
ROSARIO SAYS: "In this fabric appear the oriental themes so fashionable in Art Nouveau."
