This 19thC primitive sheet set includes a top sheet measuring 72" X 60" and a button sham that measures 36" X 24". Both are expertly embroidered using cotton and silk threads it's staggering to think how long that it took to create this masterwork from about 1880-think about it, planting the plants spinning the thread weaving the cloth, dying it, embroidering this design, all so that it can rest for 120+ years unused!  There are some minor areas of darkness that will come out in it's first bath but I'll leave it up to the experts as I know many of my early textile collectors prefer their textiles 'as found'. There are no holes or stains and the fabric is of a high quality linen-of course.

I only take Paypal for I have had too many deadbeat buyers in the past. I will consider a postal money order if you email me politely and explain why you are afraid of Paypal. Of all the things to be afraid of in today's world darling, terrorists, $8 cups of coffee and fat free cheese, Paypal is really not one of them but I imagine there are a few people that still are. I'm sure we can work something out. I am always listing something so check back soon. If you buy more than one thing I will refund any difference in shipping. I love the flat rate boxes and often use them, but if it's likely to be cheaper to not use one (they go by weight) I don't. All text & use of props are copyrighted by the author. Please feel free to ask any questions, and read the 'me' link above next to my seller name for more minor rules in regards to shipping etc.. I do not take returns except for store credit on arrival unless I have made a massive mistake. No exceptions.  I take excellent photos and always answer questions, if you are uncertain, do not bid.  I work really hard to find y'all good stuff so please ask me as many questions as you need to so you are happy about your purchase--for nearly 10 years 99.99% of the people who have purchased from me loved their item so be confident and again, if you have questions, ask them.  I'll do my best to get back to you laser fast. I ship about once a week if this is a rush order let me know. Oftentimes I ship faster than that it all depends on family and work responsibilities. After a lifetime of reading too many books and buying textiles, I have quite a stash of stories to tell and textiles to sell so check back often! Signed, your, Reluctant Baroness.
