For the rest of the world who are not lacemakers, Tatting is the only word
they know as a name for lace. It is generic and finds it way into crossword
puzzles as the answer for "make lace". I haven't seen any other lace show up
as a clue in a crossword. Chantilly shows up in a song, but thats about it.
The pictures are miserble in the auction so there is no hope of knowing if
the lace is machine made by Schiffli or actually handmade needlelace.
bummer. But for 2 bucks, its a good risk.

Subject: Fw: [lace] More 'tatting' on Ebay
Sorry I forgot the item # in my first post.
Someone in Florida has a nice flower pin in 'tatting'. Item #
110190860916
At least the seller does mention some uncertainty in the description.
Looks like beautiful needlelace to me.
