Here and in Austria we have the Jugendstil time from 1895 till only 1910. And what you are suspected is more what Hrdlicka designed.
The so called Austria-laces were invited to have a hand made bobbin-lace who is quick to do that she could excist in competition with machine-made lace. And this lace should be for the modern and sportiv women of that time.
Poldi and I agree with you that the Austria-lace isn't a what we call Gebrauchsspitze, she is to fine. Unhappily we will never know what would had happened if the first world war didn't brake out and stopped a lot of things and the handmade lace production as well.
