[QUOTE="Cereus17, post: 9915170, member: 84316"]Hi! I believe this is an antique (or vintage) piano scarf or table cover. It’s pretty large. It’s an imperfect circle / or oval that measures about 4’ 10” x 4’ 6" (not including the fringe). I hope there are some fabric collectors here who can help with the identification and date. (I know nothing about fabrics.) Google Lens shows me some similar designs. (With lotus? blossoms.) Most are listed as Hungarian and are said to be silk. Most are dated between 1900 and 1950. The final photo shows the fabric folded over to show a bit of the front and the back. (The front and the back are VERY similar.) What approximate date would you give this? Any other thoughts? Thanks in advance for any info! [ATTACH=full]498108[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]498109[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]498110[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]498111[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]498112[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
