Superb Saxon Linen Damask Tablecloth Embroidered With Crown And Monogram, Dated 1880, 88x131

This This heavy, luxurious and historic white linen damask tablecloth is woven with geometrical motifs in an all-over diaper pattern and it is embroidered in one corner with a crown above a "G" monogram above the date, 1907. (crown - coronet/G/1907)

This cloth is of supreme quality. Rare and spectacular, with provenance, freshly laundered, fabulous condition. It measures 88x131". The condition is nearly pristine, especially for its age; there is a tiny scraped hole, a darned repair not even an inch long and a faint discoloration along an old fold line. I tried to show these defects in sequence. ie. you see the same darn, first in situ, second as a close-up, third from the back. c.1880.

There are two of these.
