Ocean Waves is the pattern.

Age is determined by style, color, fabric. There are other clues such as batting.

I've heard lots of advice on repairing: find same-age fabric and applique a repair. Use a special netting over the batting. Or, just repair over the tears with any fabric you'd like (this almost definitely will reduce the antique value but will increase the functional value so you must decide what your goal is for your antique).
