Origin / Provenance of my laces:
Many years (c. 3 decades) ago I purchased the entire store stock of a since long closed company for millinery, padding and passementerie supply. This company was founded in 1886 and had sold trims of French as well German origin since the 1880´s and closed in the 1960´s.
Most of my offered trims are of this stock.

Condition:
All of my offers are antiques or old used items with normal signs due to those characteristics and sold as they are. I always do effort to provide
good and detailed photos and an exact description. I tried to describe everything important. If there are still any questions or you would like more photos, feel welcome to email.


Shipping /Insurance:
Shipping will be as priority airmailed registered letter or as parcel by German Federal Post.
For several countries f.ex. as the United States it is possible to add insurance. The costs are additional 3 $ per 100 € (approx. 120 $) and included in the stated shipping.  With pleasure I will combine shipping for several items to lower shipping costs.
