Hello and Welcome to the Textile Trunk! SO beautiful and RARE! This wonderful antique French bed curtain panel dates to circa 1900 and is roller printed in the most wonderful Art Nouveau design onto velvetine fabric! I very rarely find anything in velvetine, and the combination of the texture of this fabric and the pattern is absolutely stunning! The tones include lovely rich greens, steely blue, burnt orange, brown, pink and neutral tones. It is so much more beautiful in person!! I hesitated to wash these, I believe they should be dry cleaned, but I think they will clean beautifully, but they will probably still have an unevenly faded pattern. (I have some other curtains from this set, please see my other listings). This fabric is a heavy weight. The curtain is not backed, and there are little metal hooks at the top for hanging. This can be hung as is for a timeworn look, and would also be suitable for light upholstery, framing, pillows, curtains and many other wonderful uses. MEASUREMENTS: This beautiful panel measures 51 inches wide by 108 inches long. CONDITION: This fabric is in original, unwashed condition with light storage dirt and dust. This panel has uneven fading and large areas of discoloration from storage marks. There are some small stains on the center left side of this curtain. Condition reflected in the price!
