AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Top sheet with two coordinated pillowcases from the late 1800s, Lombard craftsmanship, hand embroidery and artisanal work.

The cotton is white and appears slightly yellowed in the folds, due to decades of disuse; a wash will restore it to its natural white as in the original, preferring not to touch it to preserve the visual characteristics of time in a piece so precious. I certify the exceptional quality of the cotton and its robustness, not at all diminished by over a century of life … for embroidery connoisseurs
