Bobbin lace from the town of Honiton and surrounding area in southwest
England
Honiton lace is identified by its technique as well as design. The lace
was always made in small motifs which were either attached together or
appliqued to net to make the finished article. These motifs were all made
in the mid to late 19th century and are all good quality showing typical
Honiton floral designs.
They are idea for mounting in your own frames or other mounts, to produce
attractive displays and interesting historical pictures. All come with
a printed Honiton lace information leaflet
