A Roll of Beautifully Toned Hand Plied Hemp Mesh: 9 yards or 8.2 meters

late nineteenth, early twentieth century
9 yards x 13 12/", 8.2 m x 34 cm

What a treat to offer this beautifully colored, extravagantly long length of hand plied, hand woven hemp or ramie mesh. 

The indigo color is subtle and of medium tone and the weaving is precise and regular. The condition is good and used with no obvious flaws such as stains or mending. One short end is finished as can be seen in the detail photo which accompanies this post.

Mesh cloth like this was used to make a mosquito net, but this length seems not intended for that purpose.

There is ample quantity of it to fashion anything that might benefit from this kind of cloth and, as it is in such good condition, anything is possible.
