Beautiful vintage ticking in light pink with a motif of large garlands and white neoclassical ornaments. It is a European damask fabric from around 1930. This textile, recovered and freshly washed, was part of a mattress cover. This fabric is made of cotton. Sets of linked flowers intermingle with stereotypical acanthus leaves forming volutes on which friendly angel sharks sit.
ROSARIO SAYS: "The pattern of this fabric is very rare and original”
