Bonjour, welcome to Les Toiles Blanches stock!

here is a gorgeous antique apron that dates very beginning of the 20th century.

The fabric is a fine crispy cotton of medium weight with a gorgeous tone of ecru.

This antique work wear textile is finely built with glorious details! A wonderful volume first, a full apron built as a skirt with a belt, a button closing in the back, two front pockets cut in bias.

The vichy cotton fabric was traditionally used for kitchen cloths, towels, aprons…

The apron is in a rare flawless condition, so rare for its age!

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

WORK WEAR, APRON

French utilitarian clothes are often made of indigo cotton canvas. Aprons are special in the French peasant trousseau, being used everyday, they are often mended, patched with a lot of care. With time, they turn into lovely timeworn textiles, with beautiful tones of fadded blue. The shape covers body and legs, some of the aprons were built like dresses, most of them have adjustable ties with one or two front pockets. Characterful textiles ideal to wear, look gorgeous over jeans.



Textile Care



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!
