I know that we have discussed this in the past but cannot remember a
referrance or definition. In 18th C. embroidery, what is the difference
between spangles and sequins used for additional embellishment. I have been
reading the Mackenzie text for the Wade collection at Snowshill and she
shows embroidery samples that use both in the same illustration.
I am preparing a major part of my Collection for auction and have several
pieces of elaborate embellishment that I am trying to describe. Also, Re
the composition of sequins, besides gel, what might they have been formed
from before 1930?
Can someone put me in the right direction
Kathleen
