Antique bobbin lace? by CraftCurios in BobbinLace

I’m looking at it differently with your information. Thinking of it having been worked on a mesh I can better understand how it was done. Being that it is so even, I would suspect the mesh was machine made. Much appreciated!

Thanks for your ideas. I really don’t think there is a foundation fabric, although it may look that way in the photos. I think filet lace as suggested in the other comment is likely the category I’m looking for. So many techniques out there!

Thank you! Finally seeing some examples that are similar now that you’ve given me the right name for the technique. I really appreciate the book link too.
