FANTASTIC FANTASY - LADIES

320,00 kr

Based on an original from Storvik in Ovansjö, Gästrikland – 1820-1830

Reproduction printed calico neckerchief in 100% cotton. Dark red filled with fantasy florals.

  • Variant of a triangular men's scarf that fits women. Square and slightly larger. The size of the scarf is 85×85 cm incl. 1 cm seam allowance all around. The fabric is checked against the original and is very close in color.

    There is no original - I have started from the triangular and made a variant that fits women. The triangular original is part of a collection of clothing items from Gammelgården in Storviksbacken in Storvik, Ovansjö. The clothing items were found in the bottom of the trunk upstairs in the early 1990s. The textiles are from the entire 19th century. In the house lived the tailor Anders Andersson-Wikblom and his wife Anna Zakrisdotter, called Hat-Anna, who are probably the ones who used the clothes.

    Sewing suggestions: Rolled hem, hemmed with red cotton thread. In real life this is partially bleached - it is either unbleached linen thread that has been discoloured by the fabric or it's dyed thread that's been bleached with time.
    Finished measurement: 83×83 cm
    Förlagan (trekantigt) finns hos: Länsmuseet Gävleborg

  • 100% cotton, plain-weave
    Weight:
     121g/m2
    Print width: 154 cm
    Printing: Digital printing with OEKO-TEX certified (water-based) inks. NOTE! Cotton is a natural material that can have small loose fibers in the weave that lie on top of the fabric - therefore small white dots may appear on the finished product. In this case, these are very small and few in number as the fabric is of even, fine quality. This can happen on basically all natural materials with this printing technique. 
    Production time:
     3-8 working days
    Production: Printed by CottonBee in Płock, Poland. Produced only to order. No water and minimal electricity and raw materials are used in production. The print is fixed with heat, not chemicals.
    Washing instructions: Hand wash only in cold water to avoid shrinkage – cotton is a natural material that can shrink significantly in hot water (approx. 2%). Do not use detergents with bleach. Products should be washed inside out if possible. It is advisable to sew the edges of your fabric before the first wash, to ensure that the edges do not fray.

    ATTENTION! All square neckerchiefs have some "dead" space next to the it depending on its size - to make it a little more fun, this area is filled with a random calico print from Ovansjö. The fabric is great for toile or smaller projects. The neckerchief is therefore not cut out, you have to do that yourself as they are sent directly from CottonBee. 

  • Delivery time: Your neckerchiefs will be ordered from the printing house within 3 business days. After that, production takes about 3-8 days. The neckerchiefs are shipped directly from the printing house in Poland and takes about 3-5 business days.
