Large silk/linen hanging
18th c

Shabby Chic and visually stunning. If you don't mind the poor condition it would make a great wall hanging. As it is joined it could be unpicked to make a pair of hangings. Or inspiration for designer to copy.

58 x 47 in; 1.48 x 1.20 m wide



39 in; 1 m repeat.


Condition

Poor. It feels quite brittle. I think you will be able to tell from the photos.
