Vintage Light Cream Colored Filet Crochet Doily:
Beautiful Bouquet of BIG Roses
22x27" BIG Doily or small tablecloth
NOTE: second items ship FREE! See banner for latest sale!
I went to a wonderful estate auction last week and hit the motherlode. Beautiful selection of linens, and doilies. Bonus was that the woman was an excellent crocheter and the items were in beautiful shape. I will be listing all the goodies this week.
Filet crochet was a favorite of this lady. I bought two big boxes full. Filet crochet is a charted needlework, in which the crochet forms a net of sorts and the design is formed by filling in the squares.
Beautiful doily. Very thin crisp cotton crochet threads were used on this one in a light cream color. Like all the crochet in this estate, it is skillfully made and in excellent shape.
Size: 22x27".
Design: Beautiful BIG bouquet of BIG roses. Lots of detail.
This was made in the 1940s or 1950s probably as a matching set of doilies to be used to decorate a large club chair or sofa. Unfortunately the smaller doilies are missing.
Fiber: nice quality cotton crochet thread. This is soft and made with thicker crochet thread.
Color: light cream color.
Special features: beautiful roses
Age is probably 1940s or 1950s.
Condition: Very good for its age. No rips, tears or damage. Beautiful set ready to put in place. Although it has no odor, you might want to give it a quick wash as this was stored a long time.
Just perfect for a retro 1950s home and so versatile. Would be beautiful on your chair or sofa, buffet, or in center of dining table.
