AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A precious and rare San Leucio piqué bedspread with a striking, wide, handmade crochet border crafted from the finest cotton threads. The San Leucio piqué blanket is a classic product of the textile tradition of the Caserta area, highly prized for its cool feel and raised weave featuring the characteristic damask pattern, also found on silk bedspreads.
The purest cotton, woven in the San Leucio pattern, is produced on the historic looms of the famous San Leucio Silk Mill, renowned throughout the world for its beautiful silks. This white bedspread has been finished with a wide, precious, entirely handmade crochet border in a geometric design with rounded edges. Bought by a noble family from Caserta as part of a trousseau, it has never been used. It was lovingly kept, then professionally washed and sanitized to freshen it up.
