Swedish ticking in gray and red stripes. A wonderful antique ticking fabric from Sweden. The wide grey and red stripes make this fabric a special pattern. Twill weave on the right side. On the reverse side it appears as a flat weave and somewhat matte. Very dense. Fabric in excellent condition.

MEASUREMENTS
I am selling this textile per piece - each:
57 cm wide × 3.86 meters long (23" × 4.22 yards)
I have 2 pieces just like this, for a total of 7.7 meters (~8.42 yards) combined. Glorious for larger projects.

WHY IT’S SOLD THIS WAY
These textiles come from old cover textiles, traditionally woven on narrow handlooms. To achieve the desired width, two long strips were often joined in the middle. We carefully unpick these pieces, preserving both selvedges intact, to offer them as individual lengths. This gives you flexibility to purchase fabric in manageable widths while preserving the authenticity and larger fabric quantity.

CONDITION
Good condition. Only light wear consistent with age and history but has no structural issues. A few pale marks. Some minor scuffs. Overall the piece is excellent. Exceptional and extremely rare! It is as found, most fabulous indeed!
