MEASUREMENTS
90 cm wide × 7 meters long (36" × 7.6 yards)

CONDITION
Unused. Excellent condition. Only light wear consistent with age and history but has no structural issues. It has minimal storage or aging marks near the side seams. 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.
