Good vegetal dyes circa 18, noting the softer aubergine border color seen in earlier examples before the 180s.

Very good condition, noting largely intact ends with flat skirts and most of the original overcast barber poles and even some macramé; original sides with heavy wear, even low pile with some foundation showing on folds as seen in the images.
