antique NOS pair linen runners w original labels, embroidery+cutwork 52 + 34"l:
$19.99
From a local estate sale with many fine linens: a pair of antique but unused runners. These still have their original paper label identifying them as "Hope Chest Linens, Canary Islands, Spain" and "Pure Linen." They measure 52 by 16 and 34 by 16" and are light cream in color. The edges are scalloped and overcast, and all four corners of each runner are decorated with raised embroidery and cutwork, as shown. There are also small embroideries in the center edges of each one. The embroidery is rather stylized and has a sort of Art Deco look. These are listed in as-found condition: they still have attached labels, so I did not launder them. They have both picked up storage marks, as shown in the photos. I think these will wash out, but I will lower the price because of them. These could have many uses besides table runners: you could use them as curtain valences, pillow fabric, et cetera.
