Antique lace collar, acquired in France. This is a delicate and beautiful piece, made with extremely fine thread meticulously woven into a ribbon approximately 2mm wide. The elegant design, featuring a series of plant motifs, evokes the handcrafted artistry of the early 20th century (circa 1910-1930s). The thread used has a subtle sheen and a firm texture. Based on the stiffness when touched, I suspect it is bobbin lace made from linen thread, which was commonly used at the time. *Please note that I cannot definitively confirm the exact material or technique, so please consider this when making your purchase.* The collar circumference is approximately 38cm, and the widest part, to the tips of the leaves, is about 7cm. It is designed as a detachable collar, so it can be used for clothing alterations or as a material for creative projects. Due to its age, there are some minor signs of aging, but it is in a condition that allows you to fully appreciate the charm of the craftsmanship of the time. I hope to pass it on to someone who appreciates antiques. Thank you very much.
