Representing a superior collection of fifteen authentic Flemish lace appliques and medallions, handcrafted in the late 19th or very early 20th century. This set, preserved in remarkable 'as-new' condition, originates from the historic lace centers of Flanders, Belgium.

History of the Item: Flemish lace is distinguished by its use of exceptionally fine local linen and complex bobbin or needle techniques.

Found preserved in original silk tissue paper, this collection has avoided the typical oxidation and structural degradation common in antique textiles.

- Material: 100% Extra fine antique linen thread
