Extraordinary and very rare vintage ticking fabric in olive green. It is a European damask fabric from around 1930 or earlier. This piece, recovered and freshly washed, was part of a mattress cover. This fabric is made of medium weight cotton. Perfect textile for upholstery projects, cushions, bags, etc. Or to frame and color a corner of our house. It depicts a scene of animal love in the forest: a fawn with his mother.
It's a unique piece.
ROSARIO SAYS: "By zones you can see the intense green color that should have been. The color has faded, but the effects achieved are wonderful. Time has been giving a patina olive green and moss green more beautiful than if it were the intact green color"
