Size:
20.5" x 14"
or
52.2 cm x 35.6 cm

Condition:
Very good vintage, used, condition considering the delicate nature and age. There are some faint stains (see photo #2 for one example) and there is damage to the edging on one side (see photo #4 above.) There are also a few "nubs" in the linen which are inherent to the textile. There is a fair amount of yellowing on the off white lace areas, due to age. I have made no special attempt to remove this or the staining. The photos have been darkened a bit to make the staining more visible than when viewing in person.
