Nets : Sample book of machine-made Nottingham lace / John L. Young Ltd., Manufacturers
A 1925 trade sample book of machine-made Nottingham lace issued by the manufacturer John L. Young Ltd., for buyers in the textile trade. Its pages mount small swatches of net and lace, each labelled, in grids on green-grey card; the samples are cream-white against the dark green ground, and a designer could draw on the varied border bands, floral medallions and geometric net grounds as ready-made lace patterns.
