I certainly would wash and mangle old lace, and have done it.  Wash gently in
warm water, mild soap.  Lift out without wringing, and set the lace on a
cotton towel.  Fold the towel over the lace.  Leave it for awhile, then turn
the whole bundle over to get as much water out as possible.  Then I would
mangle carefully on a clean hard surface, nothing underneath the lace, and let
it dry flat.
