The second (an enlargemnt of a fragment of the first?) looks a lot like
Brugge or Duchesse. The third looks like nothing I've ever seen before,
but could have been "transported" directly from 16th century,
particularly the winkie "picots" on the plaits (but then, I have had
the early laces on my mind so much recently, that everything loks to me
like 16th century <g>)
