[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9609941, member: 2844"]Are you keeping them for yourself? If not, I would sell them as they are. If you are keeping them, there are a few things to consider, especially for the Chantilly one. No humidity, and no direct sunlight. Black Chantilly lace is coloured with iron oxide, which is why humidity is a no no. It is fine to keep it unfolded, the way it is now. When it has been on display, it is often difficult to find the original folds, so best not to bother if you're not used to lace fans. Besides, it is beautiful, so why not show it. It does need glass, obviously.[/QUOTE]
