Vintage table runner is a rectangle, embroidered runner, a blue flowers runner.It's a vintage Greek embroidery piece, a white linen runner, made in the mid fifties.A lovely, table runner of Greek folk art style.I have actually made it a runner, it is in thruth an embroidered rectangle piece of linen.It could have been a cutrain ot a cover of something.Its two narrow end hems are undone and the end with the less embroidery has a little cut, where the hem is turned over to be sewn.At that point the hem is turned the other way and sewn the other way.I have no idea what exact use this embroidered linen cloth had, but it looks great as rustic runner.You could use it in any way you see fit.

Its embroidery pattern is also unusual.On one side its got an elaborate pattern of blue and purple flowers in wreaths and garlands.On the other side just one line of flowers, same colours, done as a simple, wavy garland.The end with the most pattern has a three sided wavy garland of these, very cute blue and purple flowers with yellow centers, that look like aster.They also have small, pointy green leaves around them.Inside this, three sided garland there are three small wreaths/ circles of flowers.They are placed in a trinagle form and the two that are nearer the runner center are linked by another garland over them, creating a curvy 'V' shape.

A lot of the threads used in this vintage embroidery of that era, the fifties and sixties, were handmade and dyed at home at the time.This very cute, rustic runner was made for all surfaces at home, to decorate and protect.It was done in a rustic manner of embroidery, typical of folk art work.But of course it can be probably used elsewhere too, because of the way it was cut and remained unfinished and the shorter ends.
The hem on the long sides is turned over and stiched on a sewing machine.

This vintage, white linen runner with ater flowers measures 114cm in length x 49cm in width ( 44.88'' x 19.29'').It is in very good vintage condition, with only two, almost invisible,minute stains.At least these were they only ones I spotted.It's been freshly washed and ironed.
You will receive this vintage, emroidered runner folded, in a padded envelope, very carefully wrapped.

All you need to do is keep it away from direct sunlight and wash it in hand, or with mild soap in the sensitive program.Do not use pegs to dry on the line, so it will be ironed more easily and will not have deep creases from drying.

This listing is for the blue flowers, embroidered, rectangle, runner only.
