http://tinyurl.com/29lbquo Uraltes Klöppelkissen mit Ständer+Zubehör um 1910 !!
Current offer: 58.00 EUR, 6 bids
Auction ends: Dec 19, 2010 11:23:46 PST
Offered by: Ebay Seller sammeln123, Chemnitz, Germany
Comments: A wonderful Art Nouveau Klöppelständer – quite an innovative form. German stands come up for sale all the time, but the Art Nouveau ones are very rare. I’m guessing that the pegs used to fix the height of the inner piece are missing, or might be in the bag of bobbins? Otherwise, apart from a few scratches, condition looks good.
Sold for 234.99 EUR

Comments: The classic 2-volume English version of Elisa Ricci’s Antiche Trine Italiane (1908). See Bianca Rosa Bellomo’s outstanding Italian site http://tinyurl.com/28slnfq for everything you ever wanted to know about Elisa Ricci.
This translation, published in 1913 remains one of the best references on Italian lace, and the photography is great. It has recently been reprinted (poorly), and also scanned in for publication on the web at several sites (see the Arizona Textile Library version at http://tinyurl.com/2flundj).

Current offer: $45.00, no bids, reserve not met
Auction ends: Dec 20, 2010 04:43:38 PST
Offered by: Maria Niforos, Ebay Seller mithya, London-New York
Comments: Maltese fans don’t come up too often-I think the lace is sometimes a bit too heavy to be really practical. This is a nice example with a central pattern typical of Gozo work, which can also be a lot lighter than other Maltese designs. Condition looks very good.

Auction ends: Dec 20, 2010 06:03:17 PST
Offered by: Maria Niforos, Ebay Seller mithya, London-New York
Comments: Nice 2nd quarter 18th c Mechlin length – narrow but very long. Snowflake fillings. I’m thinking that the picot edge might be a later addition – not enough closeup photos to tell definitively. It’s a common 19th c ‘improvement’ since the slight picots of the original weren’t in fashion. Usually not difficult to remove, if desired.
