There is a handkerchief located at

=08.180.911&offset=0&rpp=20&pos=1
It says it was made in Saxony, Germany. But it looks like a tape lace of
possibly Eastern European origin. An explanation says it is “Church” lace.
It is clearly a handkerchief and there is nothing about it that would suggest
ecclesiastical use. Is “Church” lace a term of art that anyone is familiar
with, especially as it may relate to Saxony, Germany?
