Condition.
This has a couple of small historic repairs and some marks which it may be possible to remove with specialist cleaning.
All of the items we sell are antique and as such have all the idiosyncrasies of an old and loved textile, so small marks, stains and signs of wear are to be expected and are an inherent part of their charm.
