Circa: 1840
Condition: Used very good
Size: 33 by 60 inches not including the fringe
Color: cream
Manufacturer: American Homespon linen

This is a homespun linen towel or bath sheet with hand embroidered monogram circa early-mid 1800s. This towel measures 33 by 60 inches not including the fringe, this is a rare size for early towels , the cross stitched monogram in pink white and red reads V (I believe the cross stitching was added at a later time) it is however well done. There is wear to the fringe which is pictured and not unexpected for a towel this age, the towel is otherwise in very good condition, I have washed and pressed it. The linen is of medium weight, with a nice slubby texture that would be great for getting dry fast. There were 2 of these large towels, each different that came from the same estate.
