Description
Here are three pieces of finished hand crochet lace circa 1950s in age or earlier, probably made by members of a Canadian order of nuns for decorating the cuffs and bottom edge of a clerical alb or surplice.These pieces have scalloped edges on the bottoms or outer cuff portions and are straight edged at the tops for easy attachment, and have a repeating pattern of single crosses alternating with groups of three crosses throughout.
The lace for the skirt portion is 33 1/2“ in diameter, approx 7“ wide. The two matched sleeves are 12 1/2“ diameter and 7“ wide.
Condition graded Fine to Very Fine: no tears or discolorations. The color is slightly off- white; I don't think this is due to aging or washing- just the natural off-white coloration of the thread used in the manufacture of the product.
