Description from the seller

The image shows a wonderful round tablecloth with its eight matching white linen napkins, finely decorated with a combination of cutwork embroidery, satin stitch, and lace inserts (net-like foundation stitches). This specific piece is part of vintage linens included in grandmother’s trousseau and was entirely handmade by nun embroiderers. The embroidery alternates raised elements with satin-stitch for the petals of the flowers and the scroll motifs, with hollowed areas finished in cutwork (visible in the small arches at the top) and filled with net patterns. Vintage textile item, historically made for a bride’s trousseau. Never used. Dimensions 1.70 x 1.70 m. Napkins 40 x 40 cm. The shipment will be tracked.
