From Vintage to Antique - Part 1

There are over 300 different laces depicted here!

All are between 35 and about 100 years old and  limited stock and once sold out, cannot be replaced.

The remaining Gildebrief stock of laces will be added bit by bit.

All previous lace entries in the shop have been canceled.

Embroidered laces  are a separate category that is still "under construction".

Enjoy!

CO = Cotton

Galon = lace with both edges finished decoratively - mostly used as decoration flat on the fabric.

Because of the large quantity of laces, the entry has been split into Part 1 and Part 2.

Since the newest laces will always have the highest numbers and the interest is often in the newest entries, Part 1 starts with the highest number and Part 2 ends with the lowest number, so you can immediately see what is new on the laces front.

laces all kinds

362-lb19, Edge lace, CO, off-white, 15 cm wide, per piece

These tulle laces in 3 widths were made especially for the Gildebrief from ideas by KB in the 1990s. They were one of the last laces made by a famous Nottingham lace manufacturer before he closed his business. The tulle is the finest available in those days as is the thread that is thinner than was normally used for tulle laces. This means, the laces are wonderful for dolls since they can be easily gathered without bunching out unattractively, making them suitable for most doll sizes.
