Condition: Near perfect; extremely faint light stain. Measurements: 4" x 37". Comments: For her wedding dress and veil in 1839 Queen Victoria chose Honiton bobbin lace. Honiton has a simple English countryside flavor with its airy, stylized designs. Lappets (bands of lace made to be worn on a woman's head) were fashionable from the late 17th century through the 19th century. This is one of a very few lappets I have ever seen made of Honiton lace.
