This is a magnificant piece of machine made net lace decorated with muslin appliques that are applied with a tambour hook using the classic chain stitch or Tambour technique. There are open areas with lovely needle worked brides and a design that flows around the entire permiter with the exception of one end.

| It appears that this end was already extracted to beautify another creation. The overall size of the veil is 29" x 81". A 3" design of daisies and fronds covers the long side that meaners and melts into a magnificant depth of 14" on the corner. The other long side features 1/2" appliques along the entire length. Soft white, excellent condition. Offered as found. I can see those creative minds working already! c. 1850 |
