Description
A delicate, handmade bobbin lace from Silk, Cotton, or Linen. Chantilly lace was first produced in Chantilly, France in the 17th century from linen. By the mid-18th century, the lace patterns were made with white, black, or blonde silk threads. Good quality machine-made imitations were sold by 1840. Chantilly laces had a characteristic double background and scalloped edges with designs of flowers in vases or baskets. They were used for bridal gowns and evening gowns.
