Condition

 

Very good condition for age. A couple of larger holes and one L shaped tear. A few tiny holes here and there but the majorit of the fabric in good useable condition. Quilted at one time so you will see traces of quilt lines.

 

Colors are strong and even. No stains. 

 

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.
