Bonjour, welcome to Les Toiles Blanches stock!

here is a gorgeous mantelpiece cover that dates c1900.

The fabric is a light weight linen fil with off-white tones.

The curtain has a rectangular shape to cover the top of the chimney or shelf with gorgeous inserts of embroideries pulled thread work.

This embroidered textile is beautifully embroidered with a large central floral decor with eyelet and pulled thread work embroideries surrounded by two embroidered eyelet flowers. A stunning work of embroideries hand crafted by very skilled hands!

On the sides and down the textile, the mantelpiece has pieces added with lace entredeux to the main part. The mantelpiece is nicely trimmed with a thin piece of lace.

Please note the unusual large measurements of this antique textile!

The mantelpiece is in a gorgeous timeworn condition with a few tiny breaks in the lace, but nothing serious, great condition nevertheless.

I have freshly laundered and pressed this mantelpiece, it is ready to use!

Lovely hanged in a bath room or in a kitchen. These cloths look also amazing after having been dyed in faded tones.

Textile Care

Antique linen is a living material, if you treasure it, it will reward you a hundred times. A lot of antique textiles are so robust and wonderfully easy to wash and maintain. The fibres of these exceptional fabrics were grown without any use of chemical, these textiles are organic. No need to use chemicals to wash antique textiles, a good simple natural soap such as the savon de Marseille is fine for every kind of linen. The textiles can be machine washed on warm. The warmer ithey will be washed, the softer and floppier they will turn. Again, no need to use a softener, a dash of white vinegar or a spoon of baking soda are perfect to maintain these wonderful textiles. Dry them on the line if possible, expose them under sun light to brighten the natural white.



information

The textiles I propose show signs of times, marks that are a moving, precious treasure which attests a bygone era. I will always try to describe them as accuratly as possible, giving many details, measurements and pictures to show the reality of the linen. Estimating the age of a fabric is not scientific but rather archeologic, many signs are useful, such as the stitches, the embroideries, the sewing, the colour, the texture, even the smell of the fabrics can help. Sometimes, the auctionneers or the owners give me precious information about the origin of the trousseau, monograms, name of the ancestors. Experience is also crucial to feel and judge the fiber content, the age, the origin or the use of the textile. I will strive to describe the textiles in the most complete way, using my honest judgement, having spent many years manipulating them.

Please note my textiles come from a smoke free house. When they are freshly laundered, the textiles have been washed with natural organic soap and sun dried on line . I recently started selling my treasures, new items will be on sale very often, so please keep your eyes peeled!
