AG Gilded Age Tea Towel

The characters in this design symbolise the era known as The Gilded Age- a historical era of the 1870s to about 1900 in America. Caused by the explosive growth of factories, steel mills and railroads driven by the Second Industrial Revolution made a small, elite class of businessmen incredibly rich. The great businessmen and their families that have come to symbolise the era were the Vanderbilts; the Astors; and the Rockefellers, to name a few. • Made in England • 74 cm x 48 cm / 29" x 19" • 100% cotton Design by Alison Gardiner
