Extraordinary vintage Italian linen set, combining dense drawnwork, elegant monograms, and a striking green hue. The workmanship is superb: elaborate borders, lettering of rare finesse, and the richness of color all speak to its artistry. The extra-long cocktail napkins — seldom encountered — make the set even more exceptional.
Condition is excellent, never used, retaining an antique patina. Gently hand laundered, clean and bright. The linen is off-white, with natural slubs and darker weave lines typical of the fabric.
Set includes:
12 cocktail napkins, 6 1/2 x 13 1/2 inches;
1 table topper, 46 x 47 inches.
Companion set with yellow embroidery available separately.
