I have none, but I must say its a beautiful piece. The handwork on that is so delicate looking, sort of like tatting but then again I am no pro.

That is sure beautiful lace and the links posted are fabulous. I can just keep going on and on but I doubt I can ever learn it all. 

 

Thanks for your question and the following answer! 

It is loads of information to review! 

 

Smiles, Cyndi

Hello Ladies and Girls,

I am new around here and i am so glad to find this group here. I love laces and collect them for the last 5 years.

Your lace is from Brazil, it's called "Fillet", made from women at northwest of Brazil only, (as for as i know).

I am brazilian as well, so please ladies bare with my english.

I live in the French Switzerland side which gives me the opportunity to go search for laces in France as well... i just love to do it, i guess that i am addicted to laces. :)

Thank you for sharing this wonderful and informative link, SecondLife. It will definitely help many of us.

I've just realized that there's is a crochet also called filet, which's a good reason for more research about it.

Thanks much.

Does anyone have an idea what kind of lace this is?  I am having trouble finding a name for it.  It is a '1920's' wedding dress I bought from an antique dealer.  It looks homemade and has no tags. Can anyone help?

Hi Sarah,

I am not sure, it looks like Point d'Alençon.
