A pair of antique hand crocheted lace trims, probably made to edge towels for the littlest member of the family. So perfect that I suspect they are an English import (the English were masters at this), it is made in a filet pattern of chicks scurrying about. Each piece measures 18" x 2 3/8" and is made with tiny linen thread. Bright white, estremely strong and not a flaw to be found. Too cute for words and could be used in oodles of ways. Sold as a pair
Hand laundered, air dried and pressed c. 1900 - 20 excellent condition
