This lace collar is decorated with leaves, I think it resembles a pattern from the Wiener Werkstätte.
The collar is very fragile and has some mendings.
It's top quality craftmanship - this lace was made by a proffesional - not the ordinary "home-crafter".
What do you think?
Really beautiful !!!
What a great similarity between the leaves shape!
They are certainly comtemporary :-)
vetraio50, many thanks!!! :)
kyratango, thank you so much!!! Yes they are similar aren't they?
Of course the Wiener Werkstätte had a huge influence on the style of that time, so I suppose it could also have been made by some other manufacturer.. but as you say, definitely from the time!

Don't underestimate 'home-crafters' back then, there are still some left in the older generation who can make the most beautiful 'frivoliteter'! Love the collage, it's beautiful!
Love the collar
Very pretty lace collar.
Elisabethan, thank you so much!!! For the love, and your comments!
Im happy that you like the collar too!!
I don't underestimate home-crafters, I know they can still make fantastic things..!!
The opinion about the quality of work comes from a long-time collector and "textile expert" among leading experts in Sweden, working with both antique and contemporary textile arts for more than 50 years!?
This type of work was most likely made by a proffesional, maybe it's not so easy to see on photos, but the level of craftmanship is really very high.
Peasejean55 - thank you so much for the love and comment!!

Katzl, I do see the high quality.
