These were once part or a large breakfast or dessert set... can you imagine??? Although they can be used as doilies or coasters, they were probably used as “chargers” between the first and second course plates at fancy dinner parties. They measure between 8 and 8.5” across and each and every one is in perfect condition. 2 are slightly different (pictured) but as you can see, the difference is so slight that no one will ever notice. These were hand crocheted using a tiny thread. They are incredibly strong and will last a life time. They are elegant and dignified ~ suitable for your best table.
Freshly laundered, pressed and lightly starched. c 1900 - 30 Perfect, immaculate condition.
