~*~Hello and thank you for looking~*~
STUNNING ~ one of my favorite printed toile designs! This beautiful textile was printed in Alsace and dates c1830. Wonderful bird design!!! This textile was once part of a bed set and is a gorgeous, backed valance. The printed fabric has a lovely return on the back! This textile is 100% hand stitched and lightly hand quilted with a very thin layer of batting between the layers ~ the tone has aged to the most wonderful pinky red! ~*~ Lovely muted raspberry tones. The backing is a very finely woven cotton and there are lovely hooks for hanging, hand stitched to the top. I'm not certain if these are original to the textile! ~ This textile is hand stitched at the sides ~ beautiful used as a hanging ~*~ ~*~ Dramatic and wonderful ~*~ ~*~ ( please see my other textiles for more matching pieces to the set) ( toile 420)
