Photos are a good representation of actual color and condition..
Measurements
2 meters 39 cm from top to bottom
The width is
83 cm (still has the selvage along both sides)
Condition
Several largish holes here and there, many small holes and thin areas which can be seen when held up to the light. Some small areas in good condition suitable for small projects. The threads are good and strong and color even. No stains. If used for sewing I would recommend stabilizing. Colors are strong and consistant.
The fabric has been given a cold water soak to remove dust and dirst and then a light light laundering using those famous Marseille soaps without bleaching agents.
It is our aim to preserve and protect the orginal colors of the fabric since many of our fabrics are being currently reproduced.
