LACE - EMBROIDERY.

When I were in Amsterdam I went on several fleamarkets and I were able to find a special shop with lots of antique clothes, laces, embroidery, buttoms ect. The shop can be found on facebook; 1953 Retro & Chic. 
This is a special item. The owner of 1953 Retro & Chic told me it had been used to be put around the neck and then hang down in the front of a blouse.
So beautiful. Like a roset together with a leaf.
I also found two cuffs with bobinlace. The white color have turn yellow a little bit.
It is a little bit curly, but I am affraid to iron it to much, but I will try.
This piece is close to my heart as my grandmother tought me bobinlace when I were fourteen.
Kind of gloves. I think it is knitted.
At the fleamarket I were lucky to find a blouse for a child with a handmade buttom.
One more handmade buttom, but found in Copenhagen at Decor.
Bobinlace, also found at Decor.
A special collar from 1953 Retro & Chic.
Detail of the way it is made with the stitching so it is possible to make the up and down.
