A divine little morceau..............

I love discovering a piece of old toile with a pattern I have never seen before. After 28 years of truffling out old French textiles I thought I had seen them all. But, today, I discovered in a box the most divine morceau of 19th century toile with a pattern new to me with..............


                                       ...butterflies...

                                 ...humming birds...



                                  ...dragonflies...


..and all teamed with exotic lillies..

I am gently washing it before I list it in my auction. I wonder which room at the chateau this wonderful old textile embellished?
