Name/Title
Placemat, Napkin: Country Life 111, BlueDescription
A two-color silkscreen print on natural linen. At left, a vertical field of navy blue is populated with small crosses or plus signs, reminiscent of calico fabric patterns. Across the lower margin is a green scrolled line. The asymmetrical nature of the design allows for playful presentations depending on how the napkin is folded.
This napkin matches the Country Life 111 placemat. The calico print on the napkin matches the blouse of the farmer’s wife.
Edges are straight stitched and fringed.Made/Created
