Description

The listing, What is it? has ended.

What is it?
Unpacking my boxes from a recent move I came upon this item. I purchased it in Illinois back in the late 80's and put it in a box and forgot about it.

Moving is like Christmas :) You open a box and say to yourself "wow I do not remember this" or "I forgot that I had this" or "it's just what I was looking for"

This hand crochet ecru doily or runner or ??? is 24 inches by 20 inches. It could be used as a decorative doily or a toss pillow decoration or ????

All I know it needs a good home because I have no place for it. It is in beautiful vintage condition and I did launder and press it.

I follow all Listia rules
No buyers remorse.....if you do not want it....do not bid

WINNER: Please verify your information quickly, I like to ship your items FAST!

Thank you for visiting and your comment. It is beautiful! I have several pieces that I display and guard from harm. Unfortunately I have no room for this one, but a special Listian will.

I like to crochet; and, knitting looks different from this. So, I'm pretty sure this is made from TATTING. Now a-days, tatting is a lost art. Yours is an antique scarf for the dresser, chest of drawers or antique table, with a gorgeous antique vase on it. Good luck with your auction. =D

Thank you for your visit and great insight. You are right it would look beautiful with an antique table and vase. Crocheting, knitting and tatting as well as others is getting lost in our hi tech world. I love items like this placed all over my home (drives my husband batty :) ) but this one does not go with my decor. One lucky Listian will be very happy with this doily.
