http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html A lovely and large handmade Carrickmacross lawn-on-net qpplique and needle lace handkerchief with a design of meandering foliage and cartouches filled with fine needle made fillings. Unusually, the piece has been edged with a machine made picot edging (instead of a hand-worked looped edge) and there are no 'pops' but it is still Carrickmacross! It has a fine linen centre, which is a replacement. In very good condition for its age; there are no holes in the lawn, but there are a few tiny breaks in the machine made net. Due to this lovely condition, I doubt that this piece has ever been used. Ivory in colour with some age marks - I have not laundered this piece. Late 19th century. Measures approx. 50cm (19 1/2") square. £90.00 Click on an image to enlarge http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#0 7cca7533-caca-4bdf-afbb-c3068982f091 http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK1/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK1/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#1 1b0b6422-f0d8-4acf-aee4-7744181a0735 http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK2/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK2/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#2 fd10d262-3250-430e-ab34-eaa3d3ec44e3 http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK3/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK3/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#3 8af71b49-1319-48e6-a338-c87bf066a135 http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK4/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK4/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#4 28af32b9-316a-4c6e-8159-743225d5303c http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK5/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK5/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#5 6038ed7c-3514-4f74-ba7d-790631c70e37 http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK6/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK6/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#6 4ee8e3ba-1da7-4534-8197-74dbfe93080d http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK7/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK7/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#7 08f98a59-46c5-42b7-856c-a575443466cf http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK8/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK8/micro.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27.html#8 aeea111e-ea5a-4e58-8be3-f5bad27699ee http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK9/thumb.jpg http://www.theflyingbedstead.com/The_Flyingbedstead/Car27_files/Media/Car27BK9/micro.jpg
