Wonderful cobalt blue vintage ticking. It is a European damask fabric from around 1950 with a beautiful motif of flower garlands and baskets surrounded by ribbons. This textile, recovered and recently washed, was part of a mattress cover. Very detailed pattern that is not too big.
ROSARIO SAYS: "The size of the pattern was perfectly adapted to the back of my chair"
