Genuine 1930-1950s hand embroidered white oval linen doily with fine lace edging.
Measuring 30 X 11 cm/12 X 4.5" approximately.
In great vintage (used) condition but the linen is a bit thin and there is a small hole although barely noticeable near one of the butterflies. You are welcome to ask any questions before buying. Freshly washed and ironed.
Sandwich doilies are a disappearing form of art. Yes, they were really used to serve sandwiches. They are highly collectible today with an ever shrinking supply of authentic vintage sandwich doilies.
