A bunch of grapes in the corner—
The embroidery and cutwork, stitched with beige thread,
The natural linen fabric is given a subtle, nuanced look.
The edges are finished with a scalloped (wavy) edge.
Even just this finishing touch of carefully stitching the edges of the fabric,
It's clear that each and every step of the process involved a great deal of effort.

A bunch of grapes is a special motif on the Italian dinner table.
It symbolizes wine, harvest, and abundance.
The cutwork's watermark catches the light on the table,
It has a lace-like appearance. Suitable as a meal napkin.
Use it as a small doily, placing it under a dish.
Or you could frame it and hang it on the wall. In today's life,
This set gently invites in the handcrafted work of someone in Italy.
