We are in the process of redoing the ruff for our "Suitable Gown for Her
Majesty" (SGHM) presentation at the Phoenix Art Museum in December. We
found some reasonable lace substitution (in form anyway) which is a
light ivory. I was wondering what the color range might have been in
"white" lace in Elizabethan times. I know some people were dying it
yellow and blue (later on?) but I am more interested in the "white to
neutral."
Also, forgive me if I repeat this question, but were there examples of
gold or silver lace on ruffs? Seems I have seen darker colors, but
since I don't have great access to color pictures...I wonder what other
knew.
