OFFERING A LOVELY LACE LAPPET.  I THINK IT IS CALLED BRUSSELS LACE, DEFINED BY THE ORIGIN, STYLE AND INTRICACY.  THIS PC. IS LIKE A COLLAR WITH LONG LAPEL SIDES DOWN THE FRONT.  IT MEASURES APPROX. 50" IN LENGTH AND IS APPROX. 4 1/2" WIDE AT ITS WIDEST POINT.  I BELIEVE THIS DATES SOMEWHERE AROUND THE VICTORIAN PERIOD.  A VERY PRETTY FASHION ACCESSORY FOR THE STYLISH WOMAN.  IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, NO STAINS, NO RIPS OR OTHER DAMAGE.
