[QUOTE="Northern Lights Lodge, post: 2165009, member: 13464"]Hi Houseful, You posted some of your lacy bits! :) Yes, photo #1 and 2 are handmade. But it is not bobbin lace! It is not knit, crochet or tatting. I'll have to look into that one... I'm not familiar enough to give a name without being sure! Photo #3 and 4 are unfortunately, machine made. They have bobbin design elements like the zig zag and the oval. But it is machine. Probably circa 1920-30. The same can be said for the upper lace in photo #4 and 5. Machine made. The lower lace in #5 and 6 is hand made crochet. Circa 1920-1950. Photo #7 and 8 - is indeed handmade crochet... probably sometime before 1950. Photo #9 and 10. Got me stumped on that one. I'm going to say that it is more of a machine made decorative braid. After a little digging: this one is Armenian lace. They stated it was a knotted lace. I think it would be my guess; that your's is Armenian. [ATTACH=full]252853[/ATTACH] Thanks for sharing with us! Leslie[/QUOTE]
