ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
Here is your opportunity to own a rare textile treasure - 11 YARDS of vintage, NOS Waverly Bonded Barkcloth fabric.This bark cloth material features a bold, large-scale tropical foliage print - the dominant motif is a stylized fern/palm-like leaf rendered in bands of color: deep red, coral/salmon pink, and dusty blue-teal, often striped or "flame"-like within a single leaf (a very typical 1940s-50s barkcloth technique of shading each leaf frond in 2-3 colors rather than flat color).
Interspersed are clusters of feathery, spray-like flowers - chartreuse/yellow-green and creamy white blossoms that look almost like celosia, goldenrod, or a stylized plume flower. Solid deep green palm/banana-leaf fronds anchor the composition, giving it a lush, jungle-like density.
The background is a mystic dove gray, which was a very popular color for barkcloth in this era - it lets the saturated colors pop without competing against a busier background.
This will be VERY HEAVY to ship. Need a UPS Ground quote instead? Reach out anytime.
