Definition

Keepsake lace is fine-thread work — round, rectangular or motif-built — blocked hard and finished for display or ceremonial use.

Overview

These commissions are measured in weeks, not days, and are the only pieces where thread weight and steel hooks are standard.

Storage advice is part of the delivery: acid-free tissue, flat, out of direct light.

  • Fine thread and steel hooks
