Beautifully embellished large antique French pure linen sheet. A central monogram of the letters JB (I think!) surrounded by elaborate ladder decoration - it took many hours of skilled work to create this piece.

This sheet is mostly in good condition, the linen feels sturdy and it can certainly be used as bedding. There are just a few little darns and two or three pin holes. Also some tiny blue and pink spot marks. As you can see, there is quite a bit of wear to the ladder decoration. Priced accordingly, of course and still plenty of life in it.

Freshly laundered and ready for use, colour is a soft vintage white.

Approximate dimensions: 212 cm x 310 cm (83.5 inches x 122 inches)
