I find it an honor and a privilege to have been around when the flood gates of barkcloth on the internet happened...it was a flood for sure...it was a coming together of old souls from all around the world who otherwise would never have known each other...much less know we had barkcloth in common...it was like for my whole life having to garage sale and estate sale and antique everywhere I went in constant pursuit of this stuff...and then one day...VOILA...the floods came...and every pattern and colorway happened across my eyes some very late nights that turned to early mornings some nights in those addictive pursuits of cotton vintage goodness...by then I had already amassed the largest collection of barkcloth...but I didn't know what it was called until the internet :) I just knew what I loved and scoured Miami Beach hotels in the 80's and early 90's for the best tropicals and mid century patterns...but life got easier that day and more educational for identifying patterns and colorways and building a card catalog of sorts in my memory bank...so over the years I was able to know what patterns were more rare than others...of course now they are all rare...they were then too...but there was soooooooooooo much of it...today I still own the largest collection of vintage barkcloth...and my memory bank is FULL of patterns and colorways for the last nearly 40 years...the internet...thank you...you made my life so much easier and plentiful.
This offering is for 3.5YDS or 128 inches long x 34 inches wide of one the more rare patterns of the shabby chic era of the 90's...if you got a hold of this back then you could get thousands for a drapery panel...this pattern came in beautiful colorways...blue...coral pink...white...and this wonderful dark sage meets dark lime and crisp clean bright white ground...one of the more rare ones to find...the inspiration was cascading...falling roses...almost like a waterfall of roses and trumpet flowers running down the center of the design...its brilliant...the companion colors go so perfectly...coral reds and pinks...cerulean powder blue...lavender...chartreuse...with black accents...dated from the 1930's...this is unused original yardage...all cotton...soft and wonderful...clean and no odors...
Measures 128 inches long x 34 inches wide. FLAWLESS
