Just the right thing for dinner for six with an extra napkin. The styling is exquisite with acanthus leaf scrolls and unusual acanthus flowering plants bisected by a grid of neoclassic laurel leaf garland strips and cornered with stylized shell fans. The pattern is light warm cream woven into a darker cream ground. I’ve included a picture with a white napkin to give some idea of the contrast. The sides have hand rolled and hand stitched hems on two, selvage on the other two.  The tablecloth is 72 by 88 inches (pictured on my 40 by 60 inch table). The matching napkins are 22 inches square. The set is in barely used excellent condition, no spots, stains, tears or holes. This set will arrive freshly laundered and pressed, wrapped in acid free tissue. Click Here for my Antique Linen Damask ID guides  About my linens All the linens I sell are from local estate sales, private sales, or from my own collection, therefore they are almost never new. Most will be freshly laundered and pressed ~ no starch. Some that are especially delicate, with original tags or potentially more valuable in unwashed condition will be sold as-found and clearly stated in the description. Those items, since all my linens are stored in the same facility, I cannot guarantee as-found linens are completely smoke or odor free. I will state if that smell, or any other such as mold or mothballs, is obvious. I will also point out any stains, holes or worn spots. Shipping, Payment, Returns, Bidding As to shipping, even though I will pack in fresh tissue and, where appropriate, acid free tissue or bubble wrap, I charge only for the actual shipping. I prefer Priority Mail but, if asked, I will ship anyway that may be less expensive. Foreign bidders, I DO NOT SHIP AS GIFTS as it is illegal and please remember to send telephone number for customs. Returns only if the description is grossly erroneous. If that is the case, and I hope it is not, I will also reimburse shipping. No returns will be made if not reported within three days of delivery and/or if the item has been laundered or interfered with. Bid well and early.
