~*~ Hello and Welcome to the Textile Trunk! ~*~ Please follow us on Instagram @textiletrunk ~*~

This is one of the best stair runner bolts we have! Black stripes are extremely *rare*

This textile is a wonderful, antique European hand-woven, heavy hemp table runner, stair runner, or heavyweight upholstery fabric (this fabric can be used for any of these purposes!) ~

Ideal for any period or farmhouse interior! ~ This lovely textile was used to make very heavy grain sacking fabric, but now this particular bolt would make great table runners, rustic pillows, area rugs, and stair runners! This unused bolt of homespun dates from the early 1900's and was 100% woven by hand. Gorgeous! Amazing double black stripes down the center with an accent of navy blue on the right stripe. It is so difficult to find black! The ground tone is a lovely dark, warm natural hemp tone! ~* This textile is a wonderful very heavy weight, extremely durable, and slightly coarse! ~*~ I love knowing that these textiles were produced without the use of chemicals so are totally natural, organic textiles. ~*~ For easy stair runner instructions, please see below, and see condition below. ~*~

MEASUREMENTS: I am selling this fabric BY THE YARD, so one purchase of this lovely runner will give you a piece that is approximately 20 inches wide by 36 inches long. This bolt is 20 inches at it's widest but will vary slightly throughout!

If you would like to purchase multiple quantities, simply add to your cart and change the quantity to the number of yards you would like. (For example, if you wanted 3 yards, simply change the quantity to 3 and you will receive one long uncut length that is 3 yards long.)
~*~ PLEASE NOTE : BECAUSE THESE BOLTS ARE ANTIQUE AND ONE OF A KIND UNIQUE, WE ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCEPT RETURNS OF ANY PURCHASES OF LESS THAN 3 YARDS LONG. ~*~

CONDITION : This bolt is in as found, unwashed condition but it can be dry cleaned. There are a few marks here and there, but generally this runner is in extremely good condition - one of the best conditions we've seen in these runners! Wonderfully sturdy, and built to last a lifetime... Antique textiles at their best!

STAIR RUNNER INSTRUCTIONS: These textiles are built to withstand generations of use ~ To measure your stairs, simply lay a piece of string and follow the entire area as the runner will lay, then simply measure the string! ~*~* ~*~ I have sold many many of these rolls as stair runners and people have raved about them for a very long time. Fitting is usually done with a thin felt underlay and then either tacked, nailed or stapled to the stairs or stair rods can be used. This roll would also be wonderful cut into smaller rugs, table runners, stair runners or hallway carpeting OR would make a very rustic table runner~ it has a wonderful unique look, very special indeed~*~ ~*~!!! It would give so much warmth and flair to any room! ~*~ ( I have attached a couple of photographs of my runners in use ~ so beautiful, so unique ~ a lovely piece of textile history; brought back to add beauty to our lives today~*~ ) These heavy textiles are far better to either dry clean or spot clean as needed. If laying as a stair runner, simply treat as you would any other rug to clean! ~
