This hand or guest towel is made of a cotton/linen blend I believe, but it could be all linen. It is a light beige with one scalloped edge buttonhole stitched in green and it has a large flower in salmon and burgundy with green foliage. The embroidery is satin stitched and looks like crewel or society silk style. This is hand work. It is 12½ x 18 inches and in clean undamaged condition. It has been laundered.
