It's inspiring to see such lovely, intricate lace is still being bought and used in such settings (presumably), as it was in past centuries. Speaking of lace and religion I was researching the other day, and I came across a reference to lace in the Old Testament -- or so it appears, though it's not entirely clear to me what is being described here -- if anyone can clarify, please do! Exodus 28: "And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty . . . And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel . . . And thou shalt put the two stones upon the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the children of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD upon his two shoulders for a memorial . . . And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD. And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be. And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead, that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always upon his forehead, that they may be accepted before the LORD" (vv. 2, 9, 12, 36-38).

RE: [lace] antique lace vestments for sale
I think that might mean "lace" such as a narrow woven strip (as in shoe lace, although in this case it would have to wider than that). And although your computer states that I sent the first email (not always as smart as they think they are, computers) it was Devon, and I'm glad to see that the body of your email is addressed to her ... I was just wondering about the painting of the lacemaker that appears on their lace web page.
