As elegant a pair of guest hand towels as one could hope to find - and the lucky person whose initials are MC! These stunning towels are loomed of the absolute finest, eggshell white "fil de lin" linen, silken to the touch and with a lovely drape. The body of each towel has a very finely embroidered drawn thread checkered pattern and the hems on all four sides are finished equally with a fine drawn thread hem-stitch. A stunning monogram, "MC" or "CM," fashioned in Venetian lace is inset in the center of one extremity with a band of inset reticella and floral filet lace underscoring it at the display end of the towel. Antique hand towels are rare to find but those of this quality and beauty are almost non-existent! Likely dating from the end of the 19th century this exquisite pair of towels is in impeccable condition. Dimensions: 32.5 x 28.5in.
