~ Hello and hotsell welcome to The Textile Trunk! ~ Please visit us on Instagram: @textiletrunk ~

We are so very lucky to have come across this wonderful, antique grain sack! This grain sack is a very rare find indeed! This sack is a regional textile in Europe (please search our store for the word 'European' to see more of our European grain sacks) and was hand woven on a narrow loom! ~ This textile uses fibers that would have been produced on the family farm, and they were woven by hand to be used for grain and olive harvest. This textile was distinctive, so each family hand their own particular stripe, color or even a stamp, so that the miller could return the sack once processed to the rightful family! ~*~It's important too for you to turn your sack inside out, because often what's on the inside is even more beautiful than the outside! This sack would make a stunning pillow simply by adding an insert and using the original tie to close! Fabulous too for upholstery projects, windows, pillow making, table runners ( simply unstitch the hand stitched edges to get one long piece). We like to open them out for larger upholster jobs by cutting up the middle of the sack, and then cutting along the bottom edge. This gives you one large piece, with two side seams for accents. This sack is a one of a kind, rare and beautiful textile that would add the perfect touch to any rustic interior or modern farmhouse! This sack would also be a great addition for any textile collection!

MEASUREMENTS: 21 inches wide by 38 inches long (it's double sided, so if using for cutting there are 2 panels that measure this!)

TEXTURE: This piece has a lovely texture! It is floppy and nubby, gorgeous. Great surface texture for adding texture to a room! (see photos)

CONDITION: I've freshly laundered this sack and it's ready to use! ~ This sack is rustic and primitive! Patched ( very cool patches!! ) on the back ~ the front has a MR monogrammed stamped in place ~ The back has some small holes, and the super interesting patches! This sack has signs of time and use often inherent in these wonderful antiques ~ please use the zoom feature on the photographs to view closely ~*~ All condition reflected in the price ~
