Ideal for any period interior ~This lovely bolt of hand woven , antique hemp was used to make very very heavy grain sacking fabric. it was found in its unused state and now these bolts make amazing stair runners and table runners this bolt can even be used for heavy weight upholstery, pillows etc ! ( please see the last few photographs that were sent my some of my customers! ) This bolt of homespun dates from c1930 ~ and is 100% woven by hand. The fabric is more pliable , so this bolt would be best suited for stair runner, table runner, decorative pillow fabric etc. ~*~ I love knowing that these textiles were produced without the use of chemicals so are totally natural, organic textiles. ~*~ For easy stair runner instructions, please see below, and see condition below. ~*~( please read the condition details below)

MEASUREMENTS: I am selling this bolt by the yard so each quantity will measure 1 yard long by approximately 18 inches wide. If you would like to receive a longer, continuous, uncut length simply increase the quantity and you will receive one long, uncut piece. For example, if you need 3 yards simply change the quantity to 3 and you will receive a length measuring 22 inches wide by 3 yards long. PLEASE NOTE : BECAUSE THESE BOLTS ARE ANTIQUE AND ONE OF A KIND UNIQUE, WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCEPT RETURNS OF ANY PURCHASES OF LESS THAN 3 YARDS LONG.

CONDITION : This bolt is in as found, unwashed condition ~ This bolt is in Wonderful condition! There are a few pale marks on the edge of this bolt , otherwise this bolt is in amazing condition indeed!! Not perfect but perfectly wonderful indeed! ~*~



STAIR RUNNER INSTRUCTIONS: These textiles are built to withstand generations of use as grain sacking, so stair runner use is nothing for these! :) ~ To measure your stairs, simply lay a piece of string and follow the entire area as the runner will lay, then simply measure the string! I have sold many many of these bolts as stair runners and people have raved about them for a very long time. Fitting is usually done with a thin felt underlay and then either tacked, nailed or stapled to the stairs or stair rods can be used ( stair rods are optional, they tend to be just a decorative touch) . This bolt would also be wonderful cut into smaller rugs, table runners, stair runners or hallway carpeting OR would make a very rustic table runner~ it has a wonderful unique look, very special indeed~*~ ~*~!!! It would give so much warmth and flair to any room! ~*~ ( I have attached a couple of photographs of my runners in use~ so beautiful, so unique ~ a lovely piece of textile history; brought back to add beauty to our lives today~*~ ) These heavy textiles are far better to either dry clean or spot clean as needed. If laying as a stair runner, simply treat as you would any other rug to clean! ~Some people like to treat with a stair guard before laying. A fabulous way to bring yesterday's beauty and crafstmanship into our homes today! ~ Message with any questions, I'm happy to help.
