Please never photograph a receipt of this kind and post it where others can see the details. It probably contains identifying information that bad guys may use against you. Maybe that is why we cannot see the front? Maybe she removed some photos but neglected to remove this one?

Right, in the end I took a snap shot of the picture in my fb app on the ipad, then opened the picture up and enlarged portions of it on the ipad. I think we are looking at this sort of upside down. The cuphooks are either to hang it from something or to hang something off it. In which case

Dearest Lorelei (and others of course) Thank you so much for the info. You asked for some close-ups and here they are. Is that detailed enough? If you have any additional information, I would be so thankful! https://www.flickr.com/photos/stevienixed/16445387495/

Dear Jacqui and the gentle spiders. I have solved accessing the picture issue but not what this is. If you access fb via the apps on a tablet or phone then you have the opportunity to click on 'Posts to page'. I normally access via my browser, even on the tablet because this actually gives

The pic doesn't show up on The Lace Guild site but if you click on the name of the lady who asked the question and go to her home page on Fb then multiple pics for the object can be seen. I doubt very much that it can have anything to do with making of bobbin lace. The metal tabs on each corner

Got my copy of the British Lace magazine today and sat down straight away for my lace fix. Imagine my surprise when I spotted on page 58 under News from the Library the cover of the IOLI Bulletin with the photo of my gold necklace design on the cover. You can see my photo of it on my website.

Recently a photo of a mystery object has been posted on The Lace Guild's Facebook page. It was suggested to the buyer that it might be a place pillow,   and could we confirm it.   I don't have a clue what it is, apart from not a lace pillow, but in the past when weird 'lace' items appear on

Yes, you are right. The first link shows the reverse of the object and the second link takes you to the Lace Guild main page rather than the front of the object. What an opportunity for any of you who have not yet liked the Lace Guild main page to follow the link and link the page (hint hint)
