Alsa Lace - Gordunenverf
Alsa Lace - Gordunenverf
(29cm x 36cm)
This Belgian poster from c1930 was created to advertise dye for lace curtains commissioned by the brand Alsa. The Belgian brand claimed that their dye would not fade after washing the curtains or from direct exposure to sunlight.
In the image, a woman indoors is behind a see-through lace curtain dyed in orange with Alsa dye. Lace is part of Flemish culture and heritage; it can be traced back to the 15th century. Knowing the history, it makes sense to find a poster for a product so specific, a dye only for lace curtains. The lettering in Dutch Gordijnen Verf, translates to Curtains' Dye.

What People Are Saying...

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
