AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Cotton (I assume linen mix)
Excellent condition
254x174 cm. Tablecloth 40x40 napkins
Italian Post

This white tablecloth, with 11 napkins, shows a refined example of traditional textile craftsmanship, characterized by a complex cutwork embroidery (also known as cutwork or Richelieu style) performed on a high-quality white fabric, presumably linen or fine cotton, dating from the 1960s.
This type of manufacture is typical of vintage household linen and is characterized by:

Floral and curvilinear motifs: Stylized flowers (reminiscent of lilies or lotuses) and finely finished garlands in a blanket stitch.
Cut-out areas: Small spaces skillfully cut from the fabric and linked by embroidered bars, creating an elegant transparency effect (see-through effect).
Solid stitch and herringbone stitch: Used to give relief and define the details of petals, leaves, and veining.
It is in excellent condition; please view the photographs carefully as they are an integral part of the description.
Any duties or additional charges will be borne by the buyer; please check in advance the costs to avoid unpleasant surprises.

Fast shipping, careful packaging
