This interesting lace seems to be a variety after reticella. If you have
Margaret Stephens’ book on Embroidered Lace – the basic structure is very
similar, - except she withdraws all the threads in the square, not cut to the
corners and fold the triangles back.
The stitches used are different, and the outcome looks different, but the
basic idea is very much the same – well to my eyes, anyway!  You can also
see a relationship[p to Sols/Teneriffe Lace, too.

I find it All very interesting, whatever it’s roots!
