Description from the seller

Splendid and impressive silk bedspread in antique pink color signed San Leucio orchid, handcrafted with extra fine super workmanship. Size: 255 cm wide by 220 cm long, featuring a fringe with a very important band in a triangular shape with hanging pom-poms of passementerie, and a straight section of 10 cm.
It is entirely hand-embroidered to the ground with roses all over the bedspread. In the center, there is an 80 cm by 80 cm rosette, surrounded by damask designs. It is all tone on tone, which adds to its value.
The photos are more illustrative than words. It is in excellent condition despite a small stain on the case, and I believe it has been used very little since it is still damp. Given the variety of bedspreads in my family, they were changed often, and many were embroidered because they loved the house and the upholstery.
For shipping, I use couriers instead of postal services because they arrive faster, provide double packaging, and make communication simpler.
Shipping costs vary depending on the destination zone: Europe Zone 1 or 2, such as the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and Eastern European countries; Zone 3, such as Malta, Cyprus, and Norway; and the rest of the world.
The customs duties will be borne by the buyer.
