You sre bidding for the most beautiful antique paisley shawl.
It measures approx. 124" x 60 "
The colours are a rich burgundy with the centre being a vivid red and green design. (The photo of the whole shawl shows the truest colours)
There are also shades of blue in the design.
The shawl is in good condition for its age, which we think is late Victorian. It has been carefully stored away from light for most of its life and so the colours are still very vibrant.
It is edged with a fringe at each end.
It does smell slightly musty, but that is the only drawback.
It is being sold because we don't have the room to display it properly and feel someone who collected this kind of article would get enjoyment from it.
Overseas bidders - Only payment by Pay Pal accepted & postage would be subject to calculation.
