DAMASK LINEN NAPKINS WITH INITIALS R.T. - Textile (9) - 70 cm - 83 cm
9 Superb damask linen napkins.
These particular napkins are very hard to get by
and have become very popular. They were especially
commissioned by the Bourgeoisie family and many
initials were ordered to cover all the initials
of the direct families.
They do not come on the market often and if they do
they fetch high prices.
The initials R.T. are embroidered in high relief and each letter has
"pompons" of flowers on them. They are sitting in a oval frame
of compositions of ferns and leaves which gives a striking effect.
The napkins are framed with in each corner bouquets of flora, petunias,
ferns and leaves. The centre has scatterings of single petunias. The napkin is edged with small
scrolls.
