• If you are not familiar with this type of lace, bobbin lace is created entirely by hand using a very time intensive technique that requires lots of threads on little wooden bobbins, nimble fingers, and a sharp attention to detail! It is a fascinating art which results in exquisitely detailed thread lace.
• The lace is about 1/2" wide. Each pearl is individually knotted. 100% cotton fabric • hand wash • air dry recommended. • Beautifully Gift Boxed
