5.28.26 MAY ANTIQUE & GLASS AUCTION
Lot 44:
Description
This collection consists of multiple vintage household textiles and table linens dating from the mid-20th century. The lot features several printed cotton textiles, including a large tablecloth with a vibrant blue field and a repeating pattern of white and pink flowering branch motifs. A novelty kitchen textile features a folk art style print depicting houses, chickens, picket fences, and floral designs in a red, blue, yellow, and green color palette. Another printed panel shows a figurative motif of a girl in a green bonnet with purple and pink floral accents, characteristic of Dutch girl designs from the period. The lot also includes a variety of crocheted items, such as a large circular doily with a green open-work border and pink floral details, and a small cream handkerchief with a pink scalloped crocheted edge. Additional items include cream and white lace fragments, doilies, and a textile with yellow stripes. The pieces are constructed from cotton and linen with a mix of machine-printed patterns and hand-crocheted lace.
