A lovely antique bath towel woven in a finely detailed pattern of Pansies. Amidst the oak leaves near the bottom edge is a hand embroidered monogram “T”. In addition to the monogram there is an added row of dainty bows. Both edges are scalloped and finished with a wide buttonhole stitch. It is 100% linen damask and although it looks a little yellow in some of the pictures, I assure you it is not. Large in size, it measures 43” x “22” and, although fabulous for display, is sturdy enough to actually use.
Hand laundered, air dried and pressed. Excellent condition c. 1900-30
