Sporting the authentic look of tea-stained, time-worn fabrics,
these Americana designs are a delight for traditionalists of all
ages. Old Glory III offers a shirting-like flavor with small
repetitive designs in popular 1850s motifs on a palette of deep
reds, blues and browns. Reflecting on a time of great
exploration and settlements, these prints are of an era when
emigrants were heading West, bound for the gold fields of
California. Although silk fabrics became more popular as more
trade opportunities became available with the orient, they were
not appropriate nor sturdy enough for the trials and
tribulations of everyday living. This collection is a more
accurate depiction of the fabrics typically worn during these
trying times. |
