A vintage Irish linen damask tablecloth featuring a damask of stars with alternating ivy leaves and stars to the geometric border. Came beautifully laundered and starched and has not been re laundered. Excellent condition with a couple of light storage marks. Measures 167 cm (66 inches) square.
An antique Irish linen damask table cloth. The centre is woven with a repeating damask of stars set within a lattice, around the edges, a bold geometric border alternates star motifs with ivy leaves.
The cloth has been beautifully laundered and starched and has not been re laundered since, so it retains a fresh, crisp finish with sharp pattern definition. As is common with well stored vintage linens, there are a couple of light storage marks on the folds, shown in the photos, which should lift with a gentle soak and careful laundering. Condition is listed as excellent overall, making it ready for use or collection.
Good for my sewing projects thank you. Its nice to still get some Nottingham lace. I have family heritage with Nottingham lace-my great grandfather x3 part owned one of the lace factories in Nottingham.
