This French handmade lace doily, also known as a lace table centerpiece or napperon, is an antique bobbin lace placemat, handmade in linen in the early part of the 20th century in the traditional bobbin lace-making region of Retournac, Haute-Loire, France. It features a central floral motif with openwork and a decorative border in an oval shape. This lace panel is unused and will stand the test of time, maintaining its original condition whether used as part of a whole or as a solo piece. Suitable for collectors of antique textiles and creators seeking an antique decor element to incorporate into any visual art project.
