21 feet long!!~ This antique French textile is exquisite!!~ This extraordinary find is French, it dates from the late 1700's or very early 1800's ~ One of the very very best! This textile is called a medallion print. The ground is saffron and was piece dyed and then the medallions were printed ~ The trim on the side edge is exquisite. This panel is constructed using 2 widths of the fabulous fabric. It would have once been used as a bed curtain, hanging from a ceil de lit.

This textile would be fabulous used as a decorative hanging or also deconstructed to be used for many other decorative details. This textile is museum worthy ~
