Not on view

Rectangular strip of paper with a textile design from a group, dated 1840, made in Mulhouse, Alsace which was an important nineteenth-century center for textile production in the Haut-Rhin region of France. The design is made up out of a chevron base pattern in a dark reddish-brown color. On top of this pattern vertical strips made up out of lozenges and pearls run across the design. Every other strip is colored: the pearls in white and the lozenges in green, purple and orange.
