Castle Sheet In Very Light Thread With Crowned Monogram – 19th Century 249x350

Exceptional reception or noble bed sheet, in pure linen thread of remarkable finesse, with a light texture and icy white typical of large 19th century trousseau pieces. In its center, a hand-embroidered monogram of extreme refinement, surmounted by an immense count's crown. The relief is impressive, the embroidery richly worked, with superb arabesque foliage. The stylized letters, highlighted by highly precise artistic embroidery, reflect a know-how worthy of the finest workshops. Condition A very discreet micro-hole A perfectly executed hand-repair, almost invisible Two small localized traces A slight snag located in the border, stable, without risk of extension These small defects do not detract from the heritage and decorative value of the piece. Provenance & context Following my move to Provence, I am offering for sale a selection of objects from my personal collection of antique linen, carefully built up over the years. This sheet is one of the most precious pieces in this collection, preserved with the greatest care.
