Publisher Description: A DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE OF THE COLLECTION OF LACE IN THE SOUTH KENSINGTON MUSEUM. Originally published in 1881. The collection of laces of which this catalogue is decriptive, is restrictive cheifly to white thread Laces. It illustrates to a large extent the ornamental aspect of lace making. Many of the earliest books on weaving, textiles and needlework, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. |
