Comments: This Point de Gaz needle lace is
finely worked in naturalistic florals and scrolls
with dramatic snowflake-like needle lace fillings. The floral design is
generously decorated with three dimensional roses. The reseau (net
background) is completely hand made. This is a superior,
museum quality lace
bertha.
