The Schrafft's Chocolates box indicates that this napkin may have been a gift or a keepsake. Schrafft's was a well-known chocolate and confectionery company based in Boston, Massachusetts, popular throughout the early to mid-20th century. The monogrammed napkin, with its intricate damask pattern, represents a time when personalized linens were a symbol of elegance and status. This combination of a personalized napkin and a vintage chocolate box offers a nostalgic glimpse into the past.
This lot features a vintage monogrammed fringed napkin, stored in a Schrafft's Chocolates box. The napkin, measuring approximately 16 inches by 16 inches (including fringe), is made of white damask fabric and features a decorative fringe along the edges. The napkin is monogrammed with the name "St. Chaplin," adding a personal touch. The box, labeled "No. 1 Red Heart Schrafft's Chocolates," measures approximately 10 inches by 10 inches by 2 inches and is a charming addition, highlighting a bit of Americana.
