Know before you buy
Because this piece is crafted from delicate antique materials like wool, silk, and velvet, it is not machine washable. We recommend professional dry cleaning or gentle spot cleaning by a specialist familiar with vintage textiles to preserve the integrity of the hand-piecing.
Measuring 30 x 58 inches, this piece is smaller than a standard bed quilt. It works best as a decorative end-of-bed accent, a cozy lap throw for a reading chair, or mounted on a wall as a textile art piece.
The front features a mix of vintage menswear remnants, which have a structured, historical feel. The reverse is lined with a nubby bouclé, providing a soft, tactile contrast that makes it comfortable for use as a lap blanket.
This quilt has been preserved in amazing condition for its age, but as an authentic piece from the early 1900s, it carries the natural character of its history. You may notice minor variations in the vintage fabrics that contribute to its unique, one-of-a-kind aesthetic.
Yes, the quilt is fully reversible. You can display the intricate, hand-pieced patchwork side for a classic look or flip it to the nubby bouclé side for a more minimalist, textural aesthetic.
