I have to jump in here and say that I also have spent some delightful hours with Elizabeth Kurella, and own several of her books. I encourage any of you who are the LEAST bit interested in identifying old laces to get yourselves a copy of this book while you can!! It is one of the most visual of the guides to lace identification, AND it is very reasonably priced AND it covers an astounding number of types of laces. You'll be glad you have it as you continue to explore lace.
As an aside, I want to add that Elizabeth is a wonderful resource for collectors. She has her own website (see below, or "google" Elizabeth Kurella) and usually has a number of wonderful things available for sale. Primarily, I believe that she is one of the best professionals available for the identification and evaluation of old laces that may pop up in your inheritances or collections. Go to her website! Bookmark this site for future referance! You'll be glad you did. Clay Blackwell (usual disclaimers...)
