MEASUREMENTS: I am selling this bolt by the yard so each quantity will measure 1 yard long by about 17 inches wide. If you would like to receive a longer, continuous, uncut length simply increase the quantity and you will receive one long, uncut piece. For example, if you need 3 yards simply change the quantity to 3 and you will receive a length measuring 17 inches wide by 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 or machine washed ~ It's in GORGEOUS condition ~ There are a few very pale marks, so your length may not be PERFECT, but it's lovely condition indeed *~

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! ~
