Hello and welcome to the Textile Trunk!
This wonderful set of 11 monogrammed French tea towels dates from the 1920’s-1930’s. These gorgeous, well maintained, heirloom textiles are made from a white silk damask with embroidered details in a decorative band around the initials “RB”. These decorative details are in red and gold-ocher tones. Each napkin has a frilly fringe around the edges. Perfect for a cocktail party, speakeasy, or as a gift! It is rare to find these kind of textiles in such wonderful condition! (TT48)
MEASUREMENTS : Each towel measures approximately 12 inches by 12 inches, not including the fringe.
CONDITION : These tea towels are in freshly laundered condition. Only one towel appears to have some staining on the half with the initials, but others could have some small pale marks I missed. Excellent condition for their age!!
