This was bought in Holland where it is called grein and was used for skirts.
of worsted wool woven with pink, yellow, pale green, bronze, dark brown and neutral stripes of various widths, 15 in or 38 cm square.
Very good and lovely colours.
In the Symbuts sample book in the Fries Museum in The Netherlands there are samples of stripes or grein along with damasks, plains and diamante designs with measurements in yards all exported from Norwich. Similar striped fabric appears on the sample acard from the Norwich Textiles website. I have two pieces the same size. Price quoted is for each.
