An elegant set of three simply superb guest hand towels monogrammed "CD" and loomed of a rare quality of pure white and silken linen damask. These lovely towels are luxuriously large and have an overall pattern of star-like flowers and Greek key motif borders. The monograms, appearing at one end of each towel, are a tour de force, magnificently embroidered in red and white flecked thread with the letter D overlapping a double C embroidered in mirror-image. Certainly dating from the Napoleon III period of the mid to late 19th century, these towels are in impeccable condition and very likely have noble provenance. Dimensions: 35 x 30in.
