Bed sheet (3) - 280 cm - 240 cm - Antique linens and trousseau.

Splendid antique double bed linen set dating from 1930, originating from an old family trousseau and carefully preserved for many years. The set consists of a top sheet and pillowcases and is made of linen and cotton, with refined hand-made embroidery. Particularly elegant is the white-on-white decoration, characterized by floral motifs, ornamental scrolls, and delicate openwork and filet-type work. The richness and precision of the embroidery testify to the great care given to household linens in the first half of the 20th century. The set is a vintage-new item and has never been used. It has been kept for decades inside a chest. Considering its age of about 90 years and the long storage period, there may be slight yellowing, small halos, spots or traces from storage, even in areas not immediately visible. The set has not undergone a recent wash and is offered in its current state. A delicate wash suitable for antique fabrics before potential use is therefore recommended. It cannot be guaranteed that any time- or storage-related marks will completely disappear with washing. The photographs are an integral part of the description and show the fabric, the craftsmanship, the embroidery, and the condition. A fascinating example of 1930s bed linen, particularly interesting for lovers of antique textiles, traditional embroidery, and vintage handmade linen. Year: 1930 Material: linen and cotton Composition of the set: top sheet and pillowcases Work: hand embroidery Color: white Condition: vintage-new, never used; stored for a long time in a chest and to be washed before use. Important note: as this is an antique textile item, normal slight imperfections or alterations due to age and long storage should be expected.
