Product Details
This 1940s pattern is one of the most popular barkcloth patterns ever made and came in numerous colorways. This one has an ivory background color. This 6.5-yard panel was washed and run through the dryer at some point in the last 70+ years. It doesn't have the crisp feel of an unwashed fabric. The vat print colors on these old prints are stable, so the colors don't run, but you lose a bit of brightness when you wash vintage fabrics. So there's light color loss here. It's not faded, but it's not as bright as the day it was printed. The fabric is strong, with no damage. I'm selling this as one piece in case you're looking for a long panel to cover a chair or couch cushions. These photos were taken in natural light with an iPhone. No filters or effects were applied, so these are the true colors.
