This anonymous piece, "Servet met bloemen en slingers" (Napkin with Flowers and Garlands), is a simple, yet elegant, example of early 19th-century textile art. Dating from around 1800-1810, it features a delicate white-on-white damask design of floral motifs intertwined with garlands, adding a touch of delicate beauty to a simple cloth. Its modest size and intricate woven patterns likely made it a cherished item for everyday use, signifying refinement and taste in its time.
