Offered by: Ebay seller clarissa32, Horncastle, Lincolnshire, United Kingdom
Comments: The linen on this piece has some pulled thread embroidery, which I’m not sure I quite like in combination with the very good Binche/Point de Fee border.  The lace goes overboard with the partridge eye ground, and there are many well made small leaves bordering the abstract motifs. No figural work, unfortunately. This is a small piece, which means the lace is more delicate than it looks from the photos. Condition appears very good, although I’m worried about the effect of the lace top and bottom along the fold lines. Not clear from the photos.

Offered by: Ebay seller calexa2010, Coupeville, Washington, United States
Comments: I’d guess we see silk Irish Crochet at a ratio of about 20:1 with regular Irish Crochet. And the silk versions are a bit more limited in motifs than cotton or linen – the shamrocks along the edge of this piece are very common. What is unusual is the big tasseled rosette in the middle – it has a French feel and is slightly off-color. Might be a later addition, but it does appear to be made of silk. Condition on this piece appears very good. Could probably use a little re-blocking.

Offered by: Ebay seller great_stuff432, Odessa, TX, United States
Comments: An exceptional Point de Gaze fan. Normally I’m not fond of mother-of-pearl sticks, but the simplicity here sets off the complexity of the lace very well. The design, the shading effects, the closeness of the work, the very fine thread and beautifully done jours used for a purpose and not just because they are interesting, all point to a very high quality manufacturer. No raised work needed here. I do think it is cotton, not linen. There are a few glues pots along the sticks, and I think I see a few tiny holes in the mesh, but overall very good condition.

Comments:  It’s not the greatest Honiton handkerchief, pure slug/snails, and the work is a bit loose. But look at the plaited ground and all those figures.  It’s primitive, but primitive art can be wonderful. I wonder at the initials EW under the crown, could this be a Queen Elizabeth commemorative? Some holes in the brides and in the centers of the edge flowers.

Comments: A Duchesse de Bruxelles fan with Mother of Pearl decorated sticks. The lace is a bit conventional, the bobbinlace motifs loosely worked. There is a large Point de Gaze insert which appears to have both needle and bobbin motifs, and I think they are appliqued on a machine net. Quite unusual, but it helps in the condition. The net is in very good shape. In fact all of the lace is in very good condition, I don’t see any problems from the photos.

Comments: A Point de Gaze fan with Mother of Pearl sticks. Not quite the quality of the framed one above, but not too far off. No raised work, but that’s fine, it doesn’t need any. The design makes good use of the space with naturalistic flowers and leaves. The decorative fillings are a bit plain, but the overall organization of the design is excellent. But the symmetry seems a bit off, due I think to the mounting.  I wonder if these sticks are original.  Seller cites very minor defects, some damage and repair to the sticks.

Comments: A Milanese tape lace border, with interesting double bride ornamentation. The brides also are used as filling elements. The tape itself is quite plain, doubling back to form flower heads and leaves. Some attempt at line drawing in the tape to create diagonal patterns., and a little halfstitch around the curves. The foot edge is elaborate, typical of Milanese lace, although it does change pattern once in a while (maybe a replacement or repair?).  The piece looks original, and in very good condition – I don’t see any problems from the photos.

Comments: A bonnet veil, I’m calling it handmade. Seems to have been made of 4 strips longitudinally joined together, and wear at the seams is obvious. There aren’t enough closeups, but it seems to have a fond chant 5-pointed star ground, unusual, but not unheard of. I’d like to see how the join is done.  Another unusual element, the kind of Chantilly ‘guipure’ work done along the bottom strip – it doesn’t quite match the rest of the piece, but not entirely out of character. Overall condition is rough, mainly holes in the bottom strip. An unusual piece, maybe Spanish?

Seem to be a few pulls in the ground, but nothing serious, overall very good condition. Nicely done work for a piece this small, indicating the very high technical quality of Alençon lace in the 19th century. I won’t speculate on a date, could have been made anytime in the 19th c, probably a bit later.

Comments: A real shame this is so short. It’s early Valenciennes with the fond d’neige, to my mind, one of the great high points in bobbinlace. Beautiful line-drawing effect combined with half-stitch shading.  It has a naturalistic swirling design, just breaking out of the bizarre silk phase. At this point in time, around 1720-30, Binche was a very minor industry with few documented examples. Valenciennes was the big lace center, and the lace went through a well known design progression, of which this is an early example. Condition looks very good, one or two small holes, nothing major.

Note the needlelace rings in the centers of the bobbinlace flowers – unusual. Overall it’s a nicely made piece and appears to be in very good condition. Note – lace is not well served by photographing it on such a light ground. Hard to make out the details, and whatever stains might be present are magnified by the lack of contrast.

Comments: A border of late 17th early 18th c Milanese lace with a 4-thread plaited star ground. Interesting design, although not the greatest Milanese I’ve ever seen. The tapes in this lace are breaking up to form motifs, and have some hole and other decorations. But for the most part the clothwork is fairly plain. There is a repeat in the design, a bit hard to discern, but the piece does seem to be complete in headside and footside. I can spot a few repairs, and the edges are frayed a bit in places. You can see a few tan marks in the photos, as the seller notes.

Comments: I’ll put this one up because lace collectors often include whitework embroidery in their collections, primarily because of the needlelace filling used in the work.

Comments: There’s quite an offline discussion going on about this piece. The seller cut an additional 3 yards from the original piece, Ebay #140675419859 sold on Jan 9th, and has now put up the rest for sale, intact. The discussion is basically whether or not it is an early Flemish piece (write me separately and I’ll put you in touch with the conversation).
This is one of those indeterminate guipure laces that no one really has a solid handle on identification. A few things bother me about it. It is very long, fairly wide, and made with a thicker thread. Long pieces of laces like this do survive, often from Italy or Eastern Europe, but it would be extremely unusual for a very early Flanders lace. The design is well on its way to a more stylized pattern that one might expect to survive over a long period of time, but not so far gone that it is unrecognizable. (as in the example shown here)
  (Example, unknown origin, perhaps Easter European)
The ground is 4-thread plaited on all sides of a 5-pointed star mesh, not very clear, but I can convince myself it’s there. There are a few plaited leaves in the centers of some motifs. All of this is indicative of Italian, in the Abruzzi regions, and you see the chunky weaving in Pescocostanzo laces.  (as in this example, and note the way they get some texture in the clothwork, much like the listed piece).
(Example, probable Pescocostanzo origin)
I’m not implying that the listed piece resembles either of these two, but they do have some elements in common. It just goes to show how difficult it is to identify these laces. Yet the listed piece, shown below, does have a delicacy, despite the heavy thread, that could indicate a Flanders origin. I really think that once this more ‘production’ style took hold that it spread to many places.
Anyway, I’m going with Italian, late 18th or 19th century.
