Beautiful Antique French Handmade Edwardian Lace Mantilla
95cm by 52cm
This lace is coming from a family who had the habit to write on a piece of paper to whom this lace was made, or given or who worn it when it was a piece of clothing.
On this one : Mantille portée par Mme Thomas (elle avait une chevelure d'argent, tellement belle que sa femme de chambre en vendait a une coiffeuse)
Translation : Mantille worn by Mme Thomas (She had such beautiful silver hair that her maid was selling them to her hairdresser)
