This skillfully made cherished piece is a wonderful example of Victorian Italian whitework and needlework. These tablecloths are reminiscent of a very grand and regal period in linens. Dates from the turn of the century. The cloth is all hand done on fine linen. The condition is very good with no stains, no broken brides in the openwork, and no weakness anywhere and the linen is strong. Some damage on needlelace trim as shown in photos, any easy fix. I have washed and pressed this cloth, and this cloth is stain free. This cloth is Italian made and consists of wonderful needlelace, skillfully done raised embroidered motifs in satin stitches, openwork/cutwork. This tablelinen measures 34-1/2" x 35-1/2" square, including a 1-3/4" scalloped needlelace trim. This tablecloth will enhance any holiday table setting and a great addition to one's linen collection.
