Description

Tan and natural figured double weave coverlet with navy sections; seamless; no fringe. Floral center medallion pattern with small diamond edging and "date in a box" corners. Irregular color probably due to mismatched dye lots, with dark areas dyed with indigo and tan areas (possibly logwood) faded from a color that originally matched.
