Mohair, horse hair and wool carriage blankets or sleigh blankets were used to keep warm while riding in an open buggy in the early 1900s. This one has floral pattern on one side, still order in bright colors, and olive green on the back side. It has been stored in a dust-free bag in a closet without exposure to light. When I took it out of the bag to photograph it, I did get some dog hair on it. I will do my best to remove those, but know that it hasn't really been exposed to animals. I have a smoke-free home.
It has two holes on the back, one has been stitched, the other has not. These are not visible from the front. Very nice condition for a vintage item.
I used to have this one hanging on a wall and it just doesn't fit in my current home.
Measures 59” x 52”. Weighs 5 lbs.
Everything I sell and ship is clean and in good condition, with flaws noted. Please note, that I do reuse shipping materials when possible, as I'd like to see less stuff head to the trash.
I am open to combining shipping with my other listings.
