The edges are trimmed with ...co ordinating silk passementerie fringe. Lined and interlined it is strong and stable. Minimal wear along the top edge commensurate with age that does not detract at all. Perfect for any window, doorway or to use with a ciel de lit bed couronne. 150cms x 40cms. A Genuine period French interiors confection. The base has tiny handpainted numbers and markings below the glaze. A beautiful confection for any vieille maison collection. All the items in my listings, unless described otherwise, are either vintage or antique. They have all had a 'past' life, a history to tell - and this inevitably affects their condition through use and handling. I do my best to make my descriptions as accurate as possible but please do not bid if you are looking for pristine items; you will not find them in my auctions! However, if you are as passionate as me about beautiful time-worn treasures with a history and full faded grandeur then I hope you will enjoy looking through my treasures as much as I enjoy 'truffling' for the finds.
