Beautiful antique French red striped old creamy linen/hemp household towels from the 1800's. Soft but durable, these towels will last forever with the proper care. We have a thin, bold stripe, and a double striped towel here. These towels need washing as these are right out of a cupboard from an old French farmhouse. We acquired a large lot from one dealer. We also purchased some of these for our stitchers as they are perfect for any needlework projects and used as towels. Each of these has a loop hanger and the initials FA on them.
To clean hemp, linen or nettle wash in your washing machine with soap and warm water. Once removed from washing machine, snap out any wrinkles. Hang to dry and then press with a hot iron. The more these fibers are washed, the softer they become.
These measure 25" x 33".
