1832 Blue and white double-woven Jacquard coverlet by David D. Haring
Was from an ancestor of mine, its almost idential twin (same date, different initials) is at the Museum of Natural History. Just figured out what is was through some online searching. My grandmother used to display it in her foyer. Has some damage.
