[lace-chat] RE: [lace] Beautiful vintage table doilie in needle lace
Hi Alessandra, Yes, this is needlelace. It's typical of Chinese production. I'm not sure that it is vintage though. In 1993 I bought a new table cloth very similar to this in Australia and it was clearly marked Made in China. I think you had a good price too. My cloth is on my dining room table; it gets hand-washed frequently and is just recently showing signs of needing a few stitches to repair some breaks. I hope you enjoy your cloth as much as I enjoy mine. Liz Pass In Poole, UK.

Dear Alessandra, I agree that it is really nice and it certainly is well done. A 'steal' at that price and for that size I would say. I am not sure that it is vintage as it looks 'modern' to me. A very nice design and well executed. Definitely hand made needlelace.

Hello Alessandra I agree with the others that your doily is very nice, but probably not vintage. There is a page on my website showing detail of a modern Chinese needlelace mat of mine which had some damage near the edge so I carefully unpicked it to prove that it's handmade. Although the ground is different the patterned parts of your doily do seem to be very similar to mine http://paternoster.orpheusweb.co.uk/lace/chinese_needlelace.htm 330169221262 Brenda in Allhallows, Kent http://paternoster.orpheusweb.co.uk/index.html To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
