Superb antimacassar set made of machine made very sophisticated Alencon lace. It is machine embroidered with pattern outlined with cordonnet cording on net background. The antimacassar set is pale yellow (ivory) as was often the case for this type of item. The set comprises 3 pieces: one headrest and two armrests of identical design. It is nice and sophisticated and of very good quality.
Antimacassar sets were very popular in Victorian times and in the first half of the 20th century. Circa 1920-1930s, these pretty Alencon doilies are likely made in France and worked with a detailed floral design.The lace set is complete, and comprises a headrest and two armrests to protect the armchair’s upholstering where people rest their arms.
Nowadays it difficult to find complete sets of such quality since antimacassar sets have often have been separated and used as doilies.
Dimensions :
Armrests are 5 ½ inches X 10 ¼ inches and headrest is 12 ¼ inches X 20 ½ inches.
État/Condition :
Very good vintage condition for such a fragile set. One tiny hole on one of the armrests and a very small opening within a leaf.
