[QUOTE="Poisonivy, post: 357388, member: 2417"]It's difficult to date that kind of stuff as it was made over long periods. The modern stuff is fairly easy especially braid but I wish I was more educated on dating it. I'm ok with Victorian textiles such as velvet, I can spot that quite easily but I think that is just practice. All I can say is look at and handle as much of it as you can as texture goes a long way to knowing if something is antique.[/QUOTE]
