Inter War Years.
Highly collectable & interesting inter war years Welsh textile. Purchased in the Crymych Area of Pembrokeshire. Woven on a narrow width loom in what appears to be ex Military yarn. Cleverly using Cochineal ( Pink) and Black stripes running along the length of the cloth & as a border design across the warp. ( Border also contains Chocolate bands).
Many mills would have had surplus Military yarns after the war & it was also cheapily available on the open market. Whereby offering the savvy Mill owner the opportunity for lower cost yarns. Cochineal however , was a relatively expensive , imported dye so the costs were balanced on this particular production.
Hand spun & woven with machined warp ends & a centre seam. Super condition.
Pure wool.
Measures 70" x 66" ( 180cm x 170cm)
