One of the very best from this collection! ~ I was very fortunate to have been offered a collection of these wonderful Tambor lace curtains and textiles. This is one from the collection. To view the others from this collection simply search my store for the words " Cornely lace "
This textile is from France and dates form the late 1800's to early 1900's ~ C1890 a beautiful whitework hand embroidered Cornelli lace work . This textile is a bed canopy, or Ciel de lit topper ! ~ So picture a sheet and then near one end, there is a little valance that would have slipped around the wooden structure. It's it an AMAZING textile, I've never seen another like it. Extraordinarily densely embroidered ~ Entirely hand stitched onto a fine Indian muslin ground and hand embroidered in cotton with trailing floral motifs worked in chain stitch. I love the many patterns these reveal~ This textile is elegant and rare ~ These textiles were highly popular in France in the 19th and early 20th century. Because they are so light , they do not often survive without signs of time and use ~ These curtains were most often used as bed hangings ~
MEASUREMENTS : This lovely textile measures : 72 inches by 88 inches for the large rectangular piece and the valances that are stitched onto the back measures 14 inches long on 3 sides ~
CONDITION ~ I've hand washed this charming textile and it's ready to use . This textile is in one of the best conditions in the collection. There are some marks that didn't fully wash, but generally it's in extraordinary condition. light signs of time and use only ~ amazing
