Beautiful length of absolutely wonderful early French cotton chintz.
A chintz that no longer has a glaze so most likely very lightly glazed originally.
Lovely roses & poppy pattern floral accented with picotage dotted coralling.
The old hues are magnificent, a burnished type rusty coppery coral red accented with black on a sort of tan/cream ground.
The printing process on such a piece would have been very labor intensive as the picotage was generally printed using blocks with tiny pins.
It is aprox. quilting weight or just a hint heavier in a mid/larger scale.
Perfect for an abundance of period projects; home pieces; pillows, windows as well as patchwork, restoration, journals, band/hatboxes, bodices and clothing etc...A magnificent find.
Condition is good and strong for it's age. Has some random patina which is pleasing. I have not laundered this and am leaving it up to the buyers preference.
Measures aprox 32" wide by 1 yard ((36”)
I have 3 individual lengths available in this size, sold separately.

I do combine shipping whenever possible. If you are an international
buyer and purchasing several pieces, please wait for my personal invoice
as ebay's auto. combined invoices are higher & rarely accurate. You
can do this either by messaging me or the drop down button that says
"request total from seller" after your purchase.
Many thanks!!
