Authentic pair of vintage French flat linen bed sheets sourced from a premium family trousseau lot.
Loomed by the historic textile house Descamps-Demeestere in Halluin, France, these exceptional panels feature a crisp, structural hand and bear a distinct 1970 manufacturer stamp. Together they weigh a substantial 5 pounds, translating to a heavy, durable weight (estimated over 230 gsm) that is impossible to find in modern mass-produced bedding.
With generous dimensions of 120 inches long by 70 inches wide per panel, they offer an elongated scale perfect for a traditional European deep-tuck or creating a romantic, heavily layered aesthetic.
Presented in an authentic off-white/ivory tone, this matched pair is ideal for a high-end collector seeking the unique weight and drape of traditional dowry heirloom textiles. Both pieces remain in unwashed, deadstock condition with structurally pristine woven selvedges and finished hems.
As is typical for fine textiles preserved in family armoires for over half a century, there is some natural storage yellowing and oxidation patina. These areas are completely stable. Detailed photographs of these noted areas are provided so you can evaluate them perfectly.
