Wonderful vintage ticking in a vivid golden orange color with a motif of large roses or peonies. It is a European damask fabric manufactured around 1950 to make mattress covers. This fabric is unused. Very rare! A treasure from one of the last factories in the Mediterranean. It is made of cotton. We have this same fabric in Pink, Yellow, Blue.
ROSARIO SAYS: "Whenever I see these flowers I think of the schematized roses of Rennie Mackintosh, a Scottish designer of the nineteenth century."
