12 Pieces Silk Brocade
18th c

I am offering these 12 pieces of 18th c silk brocades and damasks together. There is one 17th c brocade. They are not fragments, but quite good sizes as you will see below.  All have a minor mark on them, but are really beautiful and would make a good collection for teaching purposes, for inspiration etc. I have a file with all the pieces photographed. Do ask for it.
