Hi Devon et al.,
Yes, it's a straight lace so not Honiton. I think it's late 19th C and
probably German because it looks like the bobbin lace I've seen in several
reprints of late 19th / early 20th C German pattern books.
I've blathered on on the ning site some more about it, and also why it's
I’m not sure, but I’d say it was Beds because it not only doesn’t have raised &
rolled work, it also doesn’t have the coarse thread that I connect with Honiton
lace. Also it looks to me like it is made all-in-one - the motifs and the
ground made at the same time.

Hello Devon,
Sorry, but I cannot see the pictures you say you put in the laceioli
identification site. Can you please put a link to go directly to your
discussion. Thank you !!!
What you ask and the answers given by the members are very welcome and
interesting.

Now that I am looking at the piece that is described as coming from
Honiton, I am wondering if the technique is actually Bedfordshire. What do
you think?
