Discover the quiet elegance of these Australian vintage hand-embroidered sandwich doilies—oblong treasures measuring 20-28cm, adorned with intricate floral needlework.
Crafted during the WWII era by devoted needleworkers preparing their "glory boxes," each piece represents hours of meticulous artistry and the intimate traditions of mid-century homemaking.
Originally designed to grace silver serving platters during formal entertaining, these doilies blend authentic vintage charm with genuine historical significance. Remarkably preserved, they stand as tangible reminders of feminine creativity and heritage passed through generations.
More than decorative accents, they're heirloom-quality investments that bring depth, character, and a story of craftsmanship to any collection.
Each vintage textile tells a story—wear marks and imperfections are badges of honour, proof of its enduring construction. Perfect for collectors and those seeking sustainable, artisanal home décor with genuine soul and history.
Over the years we have collected a treasury of beautiful household vintage linen and lace that we restore, store and present to our buyers in the best possible condition, ready to be used and enjoyed.
