MARIETTE'S BACK TO BASICS: {Early 1900s Antique French Tablecloth in Crocheted Roses}

{Early 1900s Antique French Tablecloth in Crocheted Roses}

For a very elegant table setting you could use this antique French tablecloth from the early 1900s. It is painstakingly hand crocheted in a rose pattern from a high quality all cotton thread. Done in a very nice champagne color, pictures are made a bit lighter. This cloth will work fine on any dark wooden table or with a solid red or green tablecloth underneath for creating a completely different look. Very nice French Country style on a dark French oak table! Perfect for setting up hors d'œuvres for instance. This unique piece is available at my Zen Cart on line boutique Mariette's Back to Basics. Link you find below post.

Shown here on our solid French oak table to give you an idea.

Dearest Mariette,

Your French table cloth is exquisite and from the early 1900's, this would be an heirloom piece.

Have a wonderful weekend
Hugs

Lovely tablecloth. I have one similar, not sure how old it is though. It has given me an idea to perhaps do a post on my tablecloths. Will need to be motivated to get them out of the linen press and iron them first!!
