This handmade antique floral French piece is so pretty and unique. Beige cotton with an apricot and pink floral pattern, with large border of solid apricot fabric and a delicate crochet trim with ball fringe. As only two sides were finished in this manner, I'm not entirely sure if it was originally designed as a table runner, but that seems to me most likely. It would also make an ideal window valance (after a few simple alterations). may be exactly for what is was intended, as table runner/window valance. This item is just one of the handmade pieces I sourced from the same farm in France. Most everything is impeccably sewn, so it is rather surprising - and amusing - that solid cotton has an amateurish pinking-shear type edge.
