THIS sale IS FOR A WONDERFUL OLD ANTIQUE FRENCH VICTORIAN/EARLY 1900S CROCHETED? GILTED METAL BRONZE LACE FRAGMENT. IT IS DARK IN SHADE AND ONE CAN SEE GLISTENING THREADS WOVEN THROUGHOUT THE LACE....IT APPEARS TO BE DARKER DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT APPEARS THAT THE METAL THREADS ARE WRAPPED AROUND A FINE BLACK COTTON BASE. THIS IS A RARE PIECE AND NOT OFTEN SEEN....IT IS VERY OLD AND WAS ORIGINALLY SOME TYPE OF COLLAR, BUT A LOT OF IT WAS TORN. THIS IS IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION ASIDE FROM A THREAD BREAK AT THE TOP EDGE, AND A 1.5\" TEAR IN THE MAJOR PORTION OF THE LACE (SEE PHOTO 3). I AM GOING TO REPAIR THIS WITH FINE BRONZE THREAD, SINCE I BELIEVE IF THIS IS DONE, IT WILL REALLY NOT BE NOTICEABLE. PHOTOS HAVE BEEN TAKEN IN NATURAL LIGHT WITH NO FLASH. THE PATTERN OF FLOWERS REMINDS ME OF TRUMPET FLOWERS, BUT I AM NOT ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN AS TO WHAT THEY REALLY ARE. IT HAS A LOVELY OLD PATINA AND IS QUITE DESIRABLE FOR THE COLLECTOR OF UNIQUE LACE TRIM FRAGMENTS. THIS IS BEING SOLD \"AS IS\".
IT MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 16.5\" ACROSS TOP EDGE - 15\" ACROSS BOTTOM EDGE x 5\"+. IT CAN BE STRETCHED OUT MORE SO THED WIDTH MEASUREMENT MAY BE A TAD MORE.
