Gorgeous vintage satin Ditsy pink popular floral quilt on white shabby chic "American Eiderdown"

This gorgeous quilt is one of my last true "American eiderdowns" remaining It has been seen in so many of my photos...

This special heirloom is amongst the treasures inherited from a family member who worked many years in the garment industry in NYC. This beautiful quilt is still bearing its "Dacron" label by S. Sumergrade & Sons out of NYC. The company (C1928) was a leading manufacturer in goose downs as well as many other high end textiles that were sold by luxury dept stores such as Saks.

These were commonly referred to as "American "eiderdowns and were very popular around mid century. They were made with "Terylene" in the UK and "Dacron" popular in the US. after the 1970's they went to polyester as the synthetic cottons were too expensive on a mass manufactured scale.

I have sold all of my UK terylenes and kept this American due to its gorgeous faded florals and shabby chic appearance.

This vintage quilt dates from aprox 1950's - 60's. It has the most beautiful pink florals on white that have faded to perfection in various areas giving it the perfect "shabby patina".

It makes the most beautiful decorative quilt or bed topper. I love these as large throws and tossed over beds and chairs and rolled up on cabinets.

Measures aprox 82x70"

This lovely blanket was laundered and hung to dry. It is vintage and one should expect signs of previous love as consistent with age and wear.

I describe all of my items to the best of my abilities. Most of my items are antique or vintage and are of high quality. I only sell items that I personally love myself. most items are shabby vintage or antique that means they are pre loved and will show wear of some sort. items described as shabby are just that!

This rug is as found and I have never sent it in for cleaning - it is a “shabby chic rug” If you are looking for brand new this is not your rug :)
