Outfitted with two sleeves on the back for easy hanging that can also be easily removed if so desired. A few very small pin sized spots of discoloration on the front and back that are hardly noticeable. Over all in remarkable condition.

Most importantly: Please do not cut this quilt for a coat or other project. It is too beautiful and in gorgeous condition and a work of art in and of itself. It would be tragic to cut up such a beautiful piece of textile history.
