OLD POINT LACE.

[blocks in formation]

ELZEVIR PRESS :-PRINTED BY JOHN C. WILKINS, 9, CASTLE STREET, CHANCERY LANE.

PREFACE.

HE following facsimiles of Point-
Lace are selected from specimens

in the valuable collection at the

South Kensington Museum, and are published with the sanction of the authorities of that Institution, for which sanction the Author is very grateful, as she is thus afforded an opportunity of diffusing among the public a few antique examples, as standard models of beauty to those who now endeavour to revive the long-neglected art of needle lace-making.

D. W. H.
