Thanks for the pics everybody :))
Since the Queen encourages national industry, she does wear machine laces.
Because this black lace appears to have daisys outlined in a light mesh,
possibly point ground mesh, I suspect it is one of the Nottingham Leavers
machine laces. I wish I could get a closer view, but the pics won't copy of
course, so I can't play with a picture program to get more details. Schiffli
machines could also produce this effect. It would be nice to see her
wearing handmade laces too.
My favorite, even tho there is no lace, is pic 26 on site:
