I think it has the person's name on it in German? The person she bought it from did not know whom it belonged to. I have shown this picture to several dealer friends and none have ever seen a complete stand with pillow, bobbins, lace and lace patterns. This leads me to believe that most were burned for fuel during the war. If study the history of fabric and can date the pillow, please e-mail at [email protected], I would love to hear from you!
If you are near East, Texas and know how to make bobbin lace I would love to hear from you. I am wanting to learn this art.
