Although this centerpiece could have very well been made here in the United States by some highly talented crocheter, I'm putting my money on the presumption that it was an import from England to be sold in a higher end department store. Whatever the case, its absolutely gorgeous! Measuring 19.5" x 16.5" it is made in a filet (the English were masters at this) technique of birds on flowered boughs of greenery. It is bright white and both looks and feels as nice as the day it was made. It will last throughout your entire life time (and then some!). Guaranteed to add a soft, girly touch to any room you choose to display it.
Laundered and pressed. c. 1940 - 1960 - Excellent condition
