- Delicious and rare vintage golden orange ticking fabric. It is a European damask fabric from around 1930 or earlier. This piece, recovered and freshly washed, was part of a mattress cover. This fabric is made of medium weight cotton. Perfect textile for upholstery projects, cushions, bags, etc. The extraordinary thing about this piece is the motif used. It has a very large pattern that reproduces a bird story, in one area the pair of birds keep the eggs in the nest and in the other area adult birds feed the chicks.
ROSARIO SAYS: "It's a unique piece. I’ve never seen animal tenderness reflected in a simple mattress cloth. It's extraordinary"
