Description

This book guides you through the intricacies of identifying a piece of lace, listing and illustrating the points to look for in each lace.

It covers the whole range of lace from all parts of the world, selecting for examination those major types which the collector or dealer is most likely to come across or hear about.

The numerous photographs are arranged to assist comparison of diagnostic features and to put together laces which might be confused with one other so that their differences, sometimes subtle, can be appreciated.
