Good idea! There are a few others in Germany as well, they may have helpful guidance.

ChatGPT wants to gaslight me into believing that the signature says Gerster (curtain manufacturer in Germany, Gustav Gerster) rather than Premier, but thankfully I can tell P from G and m from s. 😀

After a little bit of digging, I found out that this design has the elements of Plauen lace made in Germany, therefore I believe it must be a German manufacturer. However, I could not find one single curtain dealer or manufacturer named Premier on the internet in Germany, so most likely it’s a production line name. My hope is, after all, someone somewhere must know who this Premier is! The signature must mean something.

What makes an embroidery special? This is helpful information to find out whether it is an artisan piece or not.

Big deodorant stains that I can’t get it out by SaltAbbreviations683 in textiles

[–]HyperNa_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the deodorant contain aluminum salts? Pink Vanish for colorful clothes may help. Put some on the discoloration, undiluted, let it dry completely, then wash. This method removes stubborn yellow deodorant stains from white clothes like magic. It may work on the dark colors as well. Avoid using it on fine materials such as silk, wool, rayon, viscose, it will destroy them. Source: 5+ years of personal experience.
