Very vintage 1920s European net lace tablecloth, natural color, long silky fringes. Net base is medium natural color heavy cotton linen thread net, and the decoration and fringes are a lighter viscose, silky and with a gleam. Viscose was an early artificial silk very popular in Europe at the time because it gave the gleam, weight, and drape of silk, yet is laundered exactly as one would cotton. The cloth measures 70 x 61 inches INCLUDING the fringes. There is a single broken net, shown, otherwise fine, just needing a soak from decades of storage.

Our linens are purchased directly from estates, and in some cases, antique markets or private homes, and due to the very large volume in which we buy and sell them, we obviously cannot clean and restore them ourselves and still keep them so very affordable. Thus, all these stored-for-decades linens must be assumed to have storage marks, fold-line darkening, etc. Some may look pristine, some will need a good bath. Any damage, or discoloration that we feel may not come out with proper cleaning, will be described. All of these are sold as is, in other words they need washing. We sell a fantastic array of specialized cleaning products to handle most anything.
