A very large panel of early 1800's toile du jouy. Cotton. Purple in color with two repeating motifs. There are 11 repeat motifs in total on this panel. Small inscriptions in French, "le doux sommeil, the doux reveil and la perriche" sweet sleep, sweet awakening and the parakeet. Romantic scenes with figures and various animals. Photos are a good indication of actual color and condition.
Measurements
2 meters 80 cm from top to bottom (bottom edge is uneven and with some damage but haven't included it in the measurements)
The width is 84 cm and still has the original selvage down the right hand side.
Condition
Larger holes along the top edge and down the right hand side. Smaller holes here and there throughout with some thin areas as well. The last two motifs of the panel at the bottom are in the best condition with little damage. Despite the various damage area still a lot of good useable fabric but probably best suited for smaller projects, document or framing.
The fabric has been left in it's original "as found" condition.
