This antique French grain sack is handwoven from a heavy-duty linen and is a sandy colour, with a red and blue stripe. It is embroidered with the initials BB and has been entirely hand stitched. It can be used for upholstery, cushions or as a floor mat. It's the perfect size to make a large garden bench cushion and it could also be used in the home as a laundry sack - hang it from the back of a door with the ties. The triangular bit at the top would have used to make pouring the grain out of the sack easier.
The sack is in excellent condition, photos 1 and 2 show each side of the sack. The fabric is hard wearing and washes well. A really wonderful piece of French history, these grain sacks are becoming very difficult to find.
