I've got a passion for antique utilitarian textiles because of their decorative esthetic and useful purposes.
This antique flour sack from Avignon is made of jute with the name of the manufacture and it's origin printed across the front. I particularly like blueish stripe across the top and across the bottom. There is a hand embroidered cross stitch monogram towards the left side. The back and front hasve some crude repairs and patches that have been done with a chanvre linen. All hand stitched. Would make great rustic looking pillows and work well for upholstery projects. Photos are a good representation of actual color and condition.
Measurements
1 meter 2 cm across x 56 cm wide.
Condition
Small area at the top edge that has some fray. There are some darker stains front and back but in my opinion only add depth and authentircity to the look.
The sack has been laundered with those famous Marseille soaps without bleaching agents to remove years of dust.
