Description: Information about this object: Bobbin lace is a lace textile made by braidingand twisting lengths of thread, which are wound on bobbins to manage them. As the work progresses, the weaving is held in place with pins set in a lace pillow, the placement of the pins usually determined by a pattern or pricking pinned on the pillow. Bobbin lace is also known as pillow lace, because it was worked on a pillow, and bone lace, because early bobbins were made of bone or ivory. BobbinsBobbins, which are traditionally made of wood or bone, are used to hold the thread. They come in different shapes, often associated with certain types of lace. The parts of a bobbin are the neck, which is where the thread is wound, a head, where thread is hitched to keep it from coming unwound, and the shank, which is used as a handle. Bobbins from England may also have a beaded spangle at the end of the shank, which makes the bobbin heavier and helps with tensioning the thread. Bobbins are usually 3 1/2 - 4 inches long, though they may be shorter or longer. Bobbins are wound and used in pairs. Bobbin collection is a common aspect of the hobby for many lace makers. Within the lace community, commemorative bobbins designating annual meetings, special anniversaries, or historic events are frequently offered which become collector's items.Dated: 15th / 16th century Size: length 61 mm - 2.40 inchSize: width 11 mm - 0.43 inchWeight: 1.57 grMaterial: wood Find: Amsterdam Condition: only cleaned with water Shipping outside the Netherlands We combine shipping All our objects are packed very carefully by packing them between layers of cardboard. We prefer this method of shipping because it is not possible to feel the contents of the package. We do everything to prevent the object from getting lost. Unfortunately, we have no influence on this, so damage or loss of the object with standard letter post is at the buyer own risk. Of course you can choose a different way of shipping. A good alternative is a package with track and trace code. Please let me know so i can change the invoice Verzending: Als u meerdere objecten koopt passen wij natuurlijk de verzendkosten aan. Wij berekenen u niet meer dan nodig is. Al onze objecten worden zeer zorgvuldig voor u ingepakt door deze tussen lagen stevig karton te verpakken. Wij verkiezen deze manier van verzenden boven een bubbelenveloppe omdat men niet kan voelen wat de inhoud van het pakketje is. Wij doen er alles aan om te proberen te voorkomen dat het object zoek raakt. Helaas hebben wij hier geen invloed op en leggen daarom het risico van beschadiging of zoekraken van het object bij standaard briefpost bij de koper. U kunt uiteraard kiezen voor een andere manier van verzenden. Een goed alternatief is het versturen middels een track en trace code. U dient dit na het winnen van de veiling zelf aan te geven.
