It's no secret that I am extremely fond of vintage linens and lace, and I couldn't resist showing you this exquisite piece.
This antique needlelace runner is an extraordinary piece of Venetian needlelace and contains 4 scenes depicting a couple in period dress that changes from scene to scene.
The urns of flowers are in needle and hand made net lace. It is trimmed with a Reticella needlelace. From the Late 19th century.
I know why these gorgeous pieces never last long at Em's Heart. If you are a lover of linens, as I am, stop by and vist Em's Heart.

Aaah, very pretty! I love crochet and lace linens! Timeless beauty!
These are gorgeous. Ten years ago or so I took a bobbin lacemaking course and loved it. The class gave me such an appreciation of the work that goes into making a piece of lace. With machinery technology we forget the handwork that used to go into these works of art.
you are so right it is extremely beautiful!!
