6 Damask linen napkins with G.P. initials. These napkins date back to the end of the 19th Century and certainly have had a life. My belief is that they were pieces embroidered by a school leaving girl for her final sewing and embroidery examination and done in single and fine "petit point" cross stitch. The reason being is that each napkin's initials is slightly differently embroidered and I suppose that is what makes them so much more individual instead of a stereo type piece. Also the dimensions of the initials varies from one napkin to another. But what does it matter. At least it shows that they were not machine embroidered. The design of the letters is brilliantly done and very artistic and certainly well achieved. Please note that some of the initials have become lighter in colour; This has nothing to do with the quality, but moreover these were more often used and thus more often hand washed.
