What is Tobacco Cloth?

July 14, 2021

Tobacco cloth is a light, airy, loosely woven cotton fabric similar to gauze or cheesecloth. Historically, it was primarily used to cover tobacco plants and protect them from frost and insects. Additionally, early Americans used it in the home for practical purposes including bandages, tea bags and window decor.

Tobacco cloth fabric folds and drapes beautifully. This amazing fabric brings a luxuriously upscale look to your primitive, country, farmhouse or rustic style décor.
