# TC-11 Antique Oval Tablecloth

White-On-White -- Handmade Lace -- Cherubs


7" by 8" insert
Needle lace in cut-outs

31" by 44", oval, this piece combines different forms of handmade lace with embroidery into a lovely tablecloth.

The 1 3/4" trim and four inserts show closely-worked designs against an open-squares background. Cutwork lace forms bold curly-ques around the inserts. Cut-out flower, marquise and diamond shapes hold needle-lace patterns. Embroidered vines are adorned with open-eyelet leaves and petals.

There are three pinhead size holes in the fabric and the pointed trim is a little fuzzy from laundering. These small flaws do not take away from the original charm. The tablecloth has been washed and ironed and is ready for your home.

*vintage: gently used; posessing age, charm, character, maturity
