Questions & Comments
Beautiful pieces! These are part of aan Antimaccasar set for a chair and they are the armrests.They are not that badly damaged and can be repaired by someone who has a way with a crochet hook.The pattern is called Royal Pineapple" and came out in the late 30s according to my pattern book. I've made 3 sets of this and they are truly lovely! Hope the info helps and good luck!
