Offered by: Ebay seller reddolly123, Nottingham, United Kingdom
Comments: A handkerchief of tambour embroidery on machine net. Nice delicate design of flowers and trefoil leaves, but not quite in the Irish single shamrock design. The pattern fills the space well, and the piece looks in very good condition from the photos.

Comments: A Honiton handkerchief, snails/slugs era. I think some of the tapes around the center and probably around the corner motifs are machine made – a labor saving device. Overall very good condition, I don’t see any problems from the photos.

Size: 16″ square
Starting Price: 14.95 GBP
Auction ends: Dec 30, 2012 10:13:22 PST
Offered by: Ebay seller derbeatle, Cheltenham, United Kingdom
Comments: A handkerchief with bobbinlace motifs appliqued on. I’m thinking this might be Honiton due to the larger size of the motifs and the large areas of fillings. But Brussels is a possibility.  The design is also less coherent that you normally find in Brussels; although the ’10-stick’ loops are more Belgian. Bit of a puzzle. And the ‘Bessie’ monogram stamp is an English name. Overall very good condition, especially the net, although there is some discoloration in the center cloth.

Comments: A Lille point ground border with a delicate border and esprits of sprigs. With the approximately straight edge it has kind of an Arras feel. The thread is also a bit uneven, which is usual a sign of linen. Looks in very good condition, I don’t see any problems from the photos.

Offered by: Ebay seller shotgun*wedding, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States
Comments: A Duchesse de Bruxelles triangular dress insert, with a good, delicate design. A raised petal rose in the Point de Gaze insert. No raised work in the bobbinlace that I’ve been able to spot.  Condition of the piece is short of good – holes in the needlelace ground and some detachments in the bobbinlace at the bottom- that could be fixed, but the needlelace is very hard to repair.

Comments: An Irish crochet collar with some large, interesting motifs with a dense ground. I think the picots are crochet loops.  It has a bit of a primitive look which is quite interesting. Condition looks very good from the photos, seller indicates some flattening from long storage.  See also 140900052854 for another Irish crochet collar from this seller.

Offered by: Ebay seller mithya, Irvington, New York, United States
Comments: An impressive, high end market Point de Gaze flounce. No raised work, which is often the hallmark of superior pieces. Excellent and complex decorative fillings, I especially like the heavy chain of rings used as a garland motif.  Note the shading in some flower petals, and the striped effect in the middle garland. Condition looks very good from the photos.

Comments: Another Chantilly flounce, a bit wider than the previous one, and with a denser pattern. No esprits in the ground. Given the very black appearance, I’ll speculate that this is a Belgian piece. The thread does look a little uneven in the ground sometimes. There does appear to be some attempt at shading, although how this is done isn’t entirely clear. I’d like to get this piece under a magnifying glass. Condition looks very good from the photos.
