100s of pieces of antique & vintage cotton eyelet embroidered trim, edgings, flounces

Huge lot of late 19th century and early to mid 20th century eyelet and broderie anglaise trims, edgings, collars or cuffs, etc. etc..

Some of this was never used, but many pieces were salvaged and saved for the past 100 years or so! It's many, many different pieces and patterns - a treasure for a collector, or plenty of old lace to use for sewing bridal, baby or antique doll clothes.

That's a box about 16" x 16" in the first photo, as you see there's lots more than a couple of inches deep. I don't think it's all shown in the photos, though I tried.

Much of this has browning or other condition problems (ragged edges or tears, a few holes, odd cuffs without mates). We've left it all as we found it, haven't soaked, washed or ironed any of it.

Lengths range from a couple of inches to a couple of yards, it all looks like quality pieces, no cheaply made newer eyelet, quite a bit of nice old European material.
