<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 9993036, member: 5398"]I wouldn't have known exactly what pineapple cloth or piña fiber is if Debora hadn't provided the wikipedia link, which says it <i>"was considered the queen of Philippine fabrics and is considered the fabric of choice of the Philippine elite." </i>I searched online for pina fiber cloth, pineapple cloth, and didn't find anything close to your set shown in the first photo. It could be quite valuable to the right buyer.</p><p><br /></p><p>The items in the fourth photo appear to be placemats with cross stitch folk embroidery--very attractive. I didn't find any exactly like them online, but it's probably not important to know where they're from or who embroidered them. The value is in the design, condition and quantity. Embroidered placemat sets do sell on eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>I couldn't find anything matching the cocktail napkins in the last photo, but because the designs are so unique and eye catching, they might be worth listing alone as a set. Vintage cocktail napkins seem to do well on eBay -- especially the more attractive and unusual they are.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
