According to Kurella's "Guide to Lace and Linens", this mesh is Maglia de
Spagna, or Spanish Point.
It appears in some Italian and Spanish lacesl, and some Torchon, usually
peasant-style laces, not high fashion.
It's an uncommon mesh, seen occasionally in 18th century Italian and some
Spanish laces.  Usually a relatively coarse mesh used in household laces. 
Since it's not high fashion, it's hard to date.
