Vintage Battenberg Lace
Battenburg edging and insertion, with cord
-
Vintage battenberg lace: These two engravings show a very pretty design for
Battenburg lace made with a cord finish. The application of the cord has been
fully described elsewhere, where a different design of the same kind of work
is given.
In the present instance the spaces are filled in with twisted bars, "spiders"
and rosettes in point d'Angleterre. The specimens from which the engravings
were made are a trifle wider than seen in the pictures; but the width is a matter
of individual taste, and also a result of the braid selected. A professional
lace-maker will enlarge or adapt the design to accord with personal requirements.
