This vintage 1940s grainsack is made of twill - weaved hemp and linen. It measures 116 cm in length and 51 cm in width. It's an old linen grainsack that has never been used. Due to its age, it might have some marks. According to our dealer, it can be washed at 40C and ironed when slightly wet to remove the marks. We prefer to sell it in its old - new condition, so we haven't tried this cleaning method.
Using this vintage grainsack is quite versatile. You can use it as a decorative item to add a touch of old - fashioned charm to your room, like draping it on a wall or over a sofa. If you want to use it practically, it can be a great storage bag for small items. When it comes to maintenance, as mentioned, you can wash it at 40C. Just make sure to use a mild detergent. Iron it while it's still a bit damp, and this should help get rid of those age - related marks. However, be gentle with it as it's an old piece. Avoid rough handling to prevent any damage to the fabric.
