Antique French & English Handmade Bobbin Lace - Sold Per Metre

By A Mystery Man Writer

We have some wonderful French & English bobbin lace sold by the metre.

Brief history about the lace below -

There are two main types of bobbin lace, namely the continuous form, whereby the ground and motif are worked in one go.

Then there is the non-continuous form, whereby 'sprigs' (individual motifs) are made in one operation and then they are linked together with small bars ('brides') or by sewing the sprigs onto a mesh back ground.

This lace we have is in beautiful condition after being stored away on heavy card for many years.

There are limited quantities available of each style at this great price.

Note - You will be purchasing 1 metre & just add quantity in the shopping cart, the Broderie Anglaise is only 95cm NOT 1 metre long.

Information of size/width are on the dropdown box.
