Over the next couple of weeks I will be listing loads of lace items. All were given to me 40 years ago by a 90 year old woman, who has worked as a seamstress in London from the age of 10 years old! , so the pieces I have are from about 1886 onwards. Nonw of the lace [this piece or any I will be offering], has a musty smell, but it does need washing to remove yellowing from age. I used many of the pieces I had in dressing antique dolls that I had either collected or reproduced myself. Unfortunately my hands and eyes don't enjoy doing such fine work anymore, so it's time to stop hoarding! As I am not a lace 'buff' I will try to do my best in naming them, but could very well get it wrong. I much prefer to let the pictures speak for themselves. When I know a piece has faults I will mention them as well as showing them in the pictures. This is a very early Victorian piece of white cotton embroidered eyelet lace measuring 58 inches in length by 6 1/2 inches wide. Please look at the pictures to see the faults. This is another of my favorites and the pictures just can't do it justice. The amount of embroidery and detail is just amazing. Shipping: I am always happy to combine shipping to save you money if you buy multiple pieces. Wait for the adjusted invoice for the discounted shipping amount before paying. Ask me to hold something
