I'd like to offer my two-cents on the subject of
non-reflective glass.  While it might reduce the glare, it
definitely cuts out detail.  If your lace is fine, you may
have difficulty seeing it as well as you would want -
particularly if you're planning to show it.  Glare-free
glass works very well with commercial prints and in areas
where there is a lot of light from overhead lights and big
windows...  but if you're framing fine art (photographs,
drawings, etchings, watercolors, or fine handwork), you
really should use regular glass.  It is better to hang these
""good" pieces (as opposed to commercial decorative
stuff...) out of direct light anyway, so that glare should
not be an issue.

cost
