EXQUISITE "ROYAL SOCIETY"LINEN 84" TABLECLOTH W/EMBROIDERED ROSES

EXQUISITE "ROYAL SOCIETY" LINEN TABLECLOTH W/EMBROIDERED ROSES. This is one of the most amazing "Royal Society" tablecloths I have come across in my many years of selling fine linens. First the size... Measuring approx. 84", it is so rare to find a cloth this size,most of the cloths made during the time were much smaller in size.This is a grand cloth, a stunning reminder of the embroideries made during the late 1800-1900's. The roses are quite majestic in themselves, combined  with the scrollwork and floral swags and also the trellis Drawnwork background..one can only say that for the collector of 'Royal Society" linens is certainly does not get better than this offering. This is a rose garden in itself! In very good condition, this has been stored away for many years and was part of a important collection. It seems rarely used.

EXQUISITE "D.PORTHAULT" PINK HANDKERCHIEF LINEN TABLECLOTH W/BEAUVAIS EMBROIDERY,NAPKINS.  The pale pink handkerchief linen on this cloth is quite ethereal, so fine and magical and of course  to add to its beauty there are fine Beauvais embroidered roses and rosebuds scattered on the cloth. Measuring approx. 144-145" by  approx.70" wide. The cloth seems as if it was rarely used but there is on 1" darn , done very well so it seems it was done in its' time, one other small opening, otherwise very good strong condition.There are 11 napkins and so my thoughts are that perhaps one of the rosebuds could be used to cover the darn if desired. the napkins measure approx.21". A wonderful banquet tablecloth!
