Victorian Antique Black Chantilly Bobbin Lace Long Lappet Headdress Trim

This antique Victorian era black Chantilly bobbin lace long lappet headdress trim dates from the 1860s. It is made of a sheer fine black net French Chantilly bobbin lace, with a floral foliage vine leaf design pattern outlined in raised cordonnet black threads with detailed shading effects and a decorative scalloped border bottom edging. This lovely lace long lappet headdress would have been worn as part of a women's headwear with matching decorative flap ends and is sheer, unlined. The lace trim measures 38 inches long and has 4 inch wide ends. It is in good condition, with only a few frayed thread edgings (see close-ups). This is truly a wonderful piece of antique Victoriana Chantilly lace headwear wearable art!
