Is it just me, or is that link not working... I keep getting an error message.

The Cleveland Museum of Art has put 1165 lace records online. For some
reason, a simple search of the word "lace" does not bring them up, although
"bobbin" brings up all the bobbin lace. This collection includes 1/3 of the
legendary Ida Schiff Collection which was used in Old Italian Lace by Elisa
Ricci. All the accession numbers beginning in 1920 are most likely Ida
Schiff  pieces. The Schiff Collection included very old laces, going back to the
17th and possibly the 16th century. Here is a link that should take you to
both the needle and bobbin lace in the Cleveland Museum. Hooray for
Cleveland!
