Description from the seller
Vintage linen-cotton blend towels – 1960s – elegant check pattern
Description
Charming lot of antique linen dating from the 1960s, in a linen-cotton blend, renowned for its quality, durability and pleasant feel.
These pieces feature a pretty blue and red check motif on a light background, typical of traditional French household linens. Each item is enhanced by an embroidered monogram, crafted with care, giving a true signature and an extra touch of elegance.
The embroidery is fine and precise, with a lovely raised texture of the thread that stands out delicately from the fabric. It testifies to careful workmanship and artisanal know-how, highly sought after in antique linen. This detail gives each piece character and an authentic dimension, while remaining discreet and harmonious with the check pattern.
Versatile, they can be used as table napkins or dish towels, adding vintage charm to a kitchen or table.
The linen-cotton blend offers excellent stability, high absorbency, and good durability. The weave is quality, supple yet robust.
Condition
Excellent condition. No defects to report. Linen perfectly preserved.
