ELEGANTLY EMBELLISHED VINTAGE LINEN TABLE COVER #D447

THIS PIECE OF VINTAGE LINEN IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION FOR THE AGE. IT IS IN ROUND SHAPE AND MEASURES 32" ACROSS. VERY HEAVY OFF/WHITE LINEN AND THEN HEAVILY EMBROIDERED WITH BLUE HAND STITCHING ALL AROUND THE SCALLOPED EDGE AS WELL AS MORE WORKED INTO THE CENTER. 2 LARGE FLOWERS (7 1/2" ACROSS0 ARE EMBROIDERED IN WHITE SATIN EMBROIDERY THREAD. THERE ARE ALSO SMALL FLOWERS DOTTED IN VARIOUS PLACES IN THE CENTER MADE OF THE WHITE SATIN THREAD.

PLEASE LOOK AT THE EDGEING!! THERE IS A FURTHER SCALLOPED EDGING ALL AROUND THE OUTSIDE THAT REALLY LOOKS LIKE HAND CROCHETING. EACH SCALLOP HAS A HOLE IN THE CENTER THAT IS EMBROIDERED ALL AROUND LIKE AN EYELET. THESE EYELETS ARE IN BLUE AND REALLY SET OFF THE EDGE OF THIS BEAUTIFUL PIECE. I AM NOT SURE IF THE EDGING IS HAND CROCHETED OR MACHINE MADE.

THE HEM ALL AROUND IS SEWN BY HAND, AS YOU WILL SEE IN THE PICTURES. NO MACHINE WORK ON THIS ITEM AT ALL.

I ACQUIRED THIS AT AN ESTATE SALE THAT WAS FULL OF BEAUTIFUL THINGS THAT WERE HAND MADE. THE LADY OF THE HOUSE IS NOW 85 YR. OLD AND IS LIVING WITH RELATIVES. I AM QUITE SURE THAT HER OLDER RELATIVES MADE A LOT OF THE THINGS SHE CHERISHED AS THEY WERE WELL TAKEN CARE OF. THEY WERE ALL OF EXQUISITE QUALITY LIKE THIS. I MET SOME OF HER FAMILY AND I REMARKED ABOUT THE BEAUTIFUL LINENS, AND THEY SAID, YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN ALL OF THEM BEFORE WE ALL TOOK SOME!! (YES, I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO SEE THEM.) I BELIEVE THIS PIECE WAS MADE BEFORE THE TURN OF THE CENTURY.

PLEASE SEE THE PICTURES. ONE VERY SMALL STAIN IS PICTURED - AND I FOUND 3 OTHERS ABOUT THIS SIZE. ANY OTHERS HAVE ESCAPED MY EYES. AS I SAID, THIS WAS WELL CARED FOR.
