From Wikipedia: "Marjatta Metsovaara (1927–2014) was a Finnish textile artist. After graduating from the Finnish School of Art and Design in 1949, she went on to design colourful printed and woven fabrics for a variety of textile producers in Finland and beyond. Based in Urala, she established her own weaving factory Metsovaara Oy which she ran until 1980. In parallel, with her second husband Albert Van Havere she developed a weaving mill in Sint-Niklaas, Belgium, where fabrics were produced for the furniture industry. Her creations included fashion fabrics, upholstery, table cloths, carpets and curtains. In 1970 Metsovaara was honoured with the Pro Finlandia Medal."
It measures 50.5" W x 68" L (1.88 Yards)

The cut edges along each end are uneven, hence the listing is for the 68" length that is intact and usable when cut evenly. Any imperfections in the craftsmanship are innate, and any wear is commensurate with age and past handling. less
