Multi Colour Floral Life-size Point Paper

Date: Est. 1926-35

Origin: East Germany

This design (ref AH3040) was ‘rediscovered’ after the reunification of East and West Germany in 1989.

Family members, returning to their relatives’ Mill premises in East Germany found it in the design room at the old factory. The Mill had been locked and boarded up since it was left by their relatives who had fled the second World War. It is estimated that this design was drawn up between 1926 and 1935. The name of the original textile artist is unknown, a quite common situation with ‘industrial’ artworks.
