Elegant vintage rectangular tablecloth in pure 100% white linen, with a compact weave and substantial feel.
Estimated period: late 1980s.
The rich embroidery was created in white on white using the traditional techniques of cutwork and satin stitch.
The decoration runs along the perimeter of the tablecloth with a large stylized floral motif, composed of large five-petaled flowers alternating with elongated, curved leaves with a sinuous and elegant flow.
The outlines, finished with slightly raised corded satin stitch, give structure to the design.
The central field is embellished with small, evenly distributed embroidered floral motifs, providing visual harmony without weighing down the surface.
Measures 173 cm wide by 260 cm long, complete with 12 matching 40x40 cm napkins.
