Mosaic lace, sometimes known as punchwork, is created by making numerous openings in the fabric. Each opening is then meticulously hand-finished, preventing fraying and adding a raised outline. The scalloped edge is finished with closely-worked buttonhole stitching. While this has a delicate appearance, the extensive handwork makes a very strong and durable HEIRLOOM QUALITY linen. Mosaic lace is much stronger, and is NOT the same as the lesser quality drawnwork. Expertly and exquisitely hand made c1920’s. Elegant cream colored fine Italian LINEN. EXTENSIVE and ELABORATE Art Nouveau pattern with masses of many different creatures - including dragons, birds and LOTS more. Tiny hand rolled hems. The handwork is truly AMAZING and this is a set of heirloom quality! 16 pc Set Includes : Runner 16 1/4" x 41 3/4" 8 Placemats 10 1/4" x 16 1/2" 7 Napkins 16 3/4" A TOP quality antique linen placemat set and you won't be disappointed!
