ABOUT THE ITEM
The first thing about buying fabric online is that all monitors distort color. I try to describe colors as best I can, but you may be much more sensitive & see subtle nuances & shades that I do not.
If you are blessed with a discerning eye and if the exact shade is important it is best to buy a swatch or buy from a neighborhood store and not online. You won’t be disappointed & they’ll appreciate the business !
 
ITEM DESCRIPTION :

So  beautifully delicate & complex antique lace. Given to me by a dear friend who inherited them from her grandmother.

NEVER been used, these sat in a box for all these years, waiting for you !

Nothing beats the look of antique lace ! The patina of age softens the edges, the occasional holes & small tears only show that this is a decades old lace, treasured through generations to wear with pride. Not some bright brash shiny new polyster recreation of yesteryear.

You’ll adore the exquisite patterns in this lace ! Unfortunately I am not cogniscant with antique laces to correctly identify this lace type. Hopefully someone will let me know ! I will describe it to the beat of my abilities.

This is an exquisite little drawstring bag, totally handsewn in very fine old cotton. It is edged with a scalloped lace edging & has an inset of a lace ( I think  this is filet lace ?) with a floral design ! There are drawn thread hemstitched sections above & below the lace strip. Just 1 look at all the little tiny stitches will confirm the caliber of seamstress that made this ! I have not repaired the casing that holds the drawstring as I would never come close to the expertise that created this !

 Perfect for a bride to carry  with the heirloom gown & veil ! – – – “something old ” !

The once off white has aged to a pale sand color that just exquisite.

FABULOUS, FABULOUS, FABULOUS !!!!! 

LENGTH : 9.25 inches.

  WIDTH : 5.75 inches

FIBER CONTENT :  Very fine cotton
