This vintage lace border was produced in the mid-20th century in the traditional bobbin lace-making region of Retournac, Haute-Loire, France. Made from cotton, this insertion trim measures 1.4 cm wide and comes in a continuous 30-meter length.

The ladder-style design features repeating openwork squares framed by narrow woven edges, giving it a structured look well-suited for sewing and decorative uses. Its width makes it versatile for larger-scale projects such as blouses, dresses, baby garments, historical clothing, and linen finishing, while still being manageable for detailed craft and upcycling work.

At Bobbins&Needles, I take pride in sourcing and curating the best quality materials for my customers. I am confident that it will exceed your expectations. So why settle for mass-produced lace when you can have a one-of-a-kind piece that adds character and charm to your creations?
