- Study Pieces and Novelties

Study pieces and novelties have stories of technique and history to tell. We hope lacemakers, collectors, and teachers will make good homes for these, where the lessons they offer will continue to be told.

Design, technique, workmanship and rarity are the great determinants of value in study pieces. Condition not so much -- rare pieces of great age, unusual techniques, or exquisite workmanship can command respect even in poor condition.

If there is a specific technique or example you are looking for, email ekurella@comcast.net or phone 219-659-1124

NOTE REGARDING SHIPPING: The computer does not understand the complexities of shipping costs. Small pieces can be combined for a better, cheaper shipping rate than what may be shown on the order form.
