Hi Again, I also checked in "Guide to Lace & Linens" by Elizabeth Kurella and her listing for Burano is just for the 1870 to 1900 lace. There is a picture in the book that is more ornate but similar to the piece on eBay. One other thing about Burano is that the cordonnet is whipped or overcast, not buttonholed. Kurella also notes that a lot of Burano lace was imported into the US by Neiman Marcus (an upscale department store)! Mostly for household linens.
