Condition
 
The fabric was quilted at one time so you will see traces of quilt  lines and a thick linen thread was used for the quilting so some tiny holes from the stitching.
 
A hole and a tear right next to it at the left side selvage. Some small holes in and around the first butterfly down. An area of small holes right side in one of the vase motifs and an old repair in the same spot.A couple of tiny light age spots but fade well into the background. Two small tears further down the fabric towards the left side. Despite the small issues here and there the majority of the fabric is very useable. 
 
The fabric has been laundered using those famous Marseille soaps without bleaching agents. We like to delivery a clean and pressed protect while preserving the age, intergretity and color.
