Hi Patty - I agree with you that it's probably not Tonder. What struck
me was that the loads and loads of finger-like gimp-work looks a lot
like Beveren. Any thoughts?

Hello all,
ebay item #250543185374
Just curious about this piece of lace, it says Txnder, can it really be
without tallies?
It's a pretty piece all the same,

=====================================================================
I am not convinced this piece is Tonder.
The footside has catchpins (Bucks-like)
The headside has 2 pairs minimum (not a Tonder practice which usually only
has 1 pair before a bundle)
The design is not very Tonder like (classical swoops and not Tonder like
flowers) and contains thistles, a much more English sort of subject
I am more inclined to the sort of point ground made during the Regency in
England, especially because of the interior gimps defining the stems of
leaves. So to me it is regency Bucks.
