One of my favorite periods and favorite fabrics for their colors and weaves!
 
This panel of 18th century slik damask. In shades of gold. Silk threads woven into a linen base. Representing classcial motifs of flowers and leaves. Fortuny amongst other were inspired by these early designs and are still being copied today. 
 
The fabric is a heavier weight and this together with several other pieces we have listed were used either as a canopy around a bed or as curtains at one time. 
 
. Photos are a good representation of actual color and condition. 
 
Measurements
 
Large piece that has been seamed together and left in "as found" condition. I liked the way it looked and would make a great decorative backdrop piece. 
 
There are 3 panels along the bottom. All three are selvage to selvage and another narrower panel that runs a long the top. 
 
The entire piece measrues 
 
1 meter 22.5 cm from top to bottom 
 
The width across measures 
 
1 meter 61.5 cm across 
 
If taken apart each individual panel would measure
 
97 cm from top to bottom 
 
The widths would be 
 
53.5 cm wide (as you can see these are very old fabrics based on their widths and hand loomed). 
 
The long strip at the top measures 
 
1 meter 57 cm across x 26 cm wide (fabric cut in the length) 
 
Condition
 
Beautiful old world look! 
 
As with most fabrics of this age some notable condition issues
 
Panel running along the top has small break towards left hand corner
 
Left panel bottom has a split. 
 
Center panel one larger split and two smaller splits. 
 
Righ side pane two splits at the edge. 
 
For the rest fabric is good overall appearance but somewhat fragile and would not take a lot of stess. So I would recommend stabilizing if using for soft furnishings.
