Beautiful vintage ticking with bright yellow stripes with other narrower stripes in various colors., It is a European fabric made around 1950. This fabric is unused. Very rare! A treasure from one of the last factories in the Mediterranean. It is made of cotton. The yellow hue gives a warm look to our projects. And the narrow red stripes add liveliness.

ROSARIO SAYS: "I am fascinated by how with few elements they managed to make such interesting fabrics."

MEASUREMENTS
118 cm wide × 4.75 meters long (47" × 5.2 yards)

CONDITION
Unused. Perfect condition. Minor wear consistent with age and history. Only extremely superficial wear consistent with age and history. Minimal pale storage or age marks on the center fold. Firm texture. This fabric has not been washed and has quite a bit of starch. Selvages preserved intact. Please note: This fabric is special because it is lightweight, yet it has quite a lot of sizing (starch), which gives it a somewhat stiffer hand. Best typically for firm treatments, such as roman shades, or to upholster chairs, ottomans, or structured pillows, such as bolsters, bench cushions, etc. potentially with a backing. We recommend to only dry clean this fabric if you want it to keep its firm texture. It is possible, however, to wash this fabric, but the texture will transform into a fluid drape almost like a voile, then, mostly apt for very light fabrications, such as kitchen curtains and similar.
