Antique Grain Sack with Ochre Stripe
£65.00
Wonderful antique Hungarian grain sack with faded ochre stripe and beautiful textured weave. Grain sacks were previously used for transporting grain from different farms to be milled. The stripes commonly seen on these textiles acted as the farmer’s signature so that sacks could be distinguished from one another. Grain sacks are versatile and hard wearing, perfect for creative sewing projects and soft furnishings.
The inherent beauty of old textiles lies in their unique variation of colour and texture which add depth and character to a home. Even the smallest details such as a simple cushion can completely change the look and feel of a room, softening a chair, sofa, window seat or bed, infusing a space with warmth and comfort.
