Magnificent embroidery

In the middle of the 20ieth century a lot of excellent textiles were imported from Asia. I don´t think that the textiles were highly appreciated then. Today I can´t stop admiring the beautiful embroidery of this lovely table-cloth. I paid 15 SEK for it. Would you like to do all that work for that amount??

Table-cloth made of linen with a lot of embroidery. An edging of buttonhole-stitches. Difficult to date, perhaps 1950.
