Elevate your collection with this museum-quality vintage souvenir tea towel featuring Sir Walter Scott’s Abbotsford. Hand-printed by Ettrick Valley, this piece is a rare find in such immaculate, unused condition.
The Professional Textile Difference:
Unlike modern mass-produced linens that are cut from large bolts and hemmed on all sides, this towel features authentic dual selvedge edges. Woven on traditional narrow-width shuttle looms, these double selvedge (self-finished) edges prevent fraying and are a hallmark of high-end vintage textile production.

Dimensions: 29.25" x 16.75" (Traditional narrow-loom width).
