Damask Tablecloth, NOS Pink Simtex Candlelight pattern w 8 napkins, Shell Pink, Large 86” x 66”, New in original box, online Floral pattern, Vintg

This large 86” x 66” pink Simtex Candlelight Damask tablecloth and napkin set is a perfect size for a large gathering. It is new in the box and has the original tissue paper. The box is in very good condition but does have a clean tear on 2 corners. No pieces are missing and the box could continue to store the tablecloth and napkins.

The made-in-America tablecloth is new in the box and has never been unfolded. The eight (8) 18” x 18” napkins also have never been used. Some of the napkins show some age spots and I have tried to show that. I do not know if there are any spots on the tablecloth. I have made no attempt to remove any spots. Both tablecloth and eight napkins are acetate and cotton. The color is a pale pink and has a floral design which might be a nasturtium pattern……perfect for a Spring table setting.

From www.collectorsweekly.com, we learn that damasks, which can be made from linen, silk, wool, or even cotton, represent the height of formal tablecloth art. Originating in Damascus, Syria, damasks utilize special weaving techniques to produce patterns that appear to shimmer above their background cloth, even if patterns and their background are the same color, as in white on white. Irish linens, including damask tablecloths, have been an important part of Ireland's economy since the 17th and 18th centuries.

A Personal Word from Blue Barn:
During this global pandemic, Americans are depending on the United States Postal Service for essential goods and services, and life-saving medications. Recent funding shortfalls and service cutbacks, as well as long-standing fiscal challenges, have caused the USPS to suffer. It is not online the time for our government to make extreme cost cuts and reduce service. In the very recent past, Etsy sellers have seen their delivery times increase by an average of one day, with experiences of longer delays. If your purchase is delayed, please follow its progress, support the Postal Service Emergency Assistance Act (S.4174), and bear with us. We appreciate your visits to any of the Etsy shops, and Blue Barn thanks you.
