This antique French chintz is just extraordinary... I love the floral pattern against the picotage background! This piece is a remarkably beautiful chintz cotton dating to approximately 1830-1850 . It was hand block printed with the most stunning colors and design! The surface was once glazed and there is a very slight glaze still remaining; it has a slightly crisp hand, and is just beautiful. There are 2 pieces, pinned together ( please be careful of the pins when it arrives! ) ~the ground tone is a pale , sea foam green with many wonderful , complimenting tones! Ideal for creative hands! ~



MEASUREMENTS: This lovely fabric measures approximately 4 inches wide by 53 inches long

CONDITION: I have left this fabric in as found, unwashed condition but it can be hand washed and hung to dry. When held to the light I can see some small holes~ signs of time and use as is inherent in these magical antique fabrics!
