Product Details

• This oval lace applique features a beautifully detailed, symmetrical design with a central butterfly motif surrounded by elegant floral scrolls. Produced using a water-soluble (chemical lace) technique, the embroidery stands alone without any backing fabric, creating a classic guipure effect with a clean, defined pattern and a delicate scalloped edge. The 100% polyester construction provides a slight sheen and durability, making this non-stretch piece a versatile component for various applications.

Key Selling Points

• Authentic Guipure Construction: The lace is created through an embroidery process on a water-soluble ground, which is then washed away. This results in a substantial, textured lace with no mesh or net, offering a high-end, classic appearance.
• Symmetrical Butterfly Motif: The perfectly balanced floral and butterfly pattern makes this applique ideal for centered placements on home textiles, garments, or as a standalone decorative doily.
• Durable Polyester Fiber: Made from 100% polyester, this lace applique is colorfast, resistant to shrinking, and easy to care for, ensuring longevity in both decorative and functional applications.

Industry Applications

• Home Textiles and Decor: Perfect as a finished doily, coaster, or placemat. It can also be sewn onto table runners, cushion covers, or lampshades to add a touch of embroidered elegance to home decor collections.
• Garment Embellishment: Use as a statement applique on the yoke of a blouse, the pocket of a jacket, or as a decorative element in heirloom sewing and children's apparel for a sophisticated, handcrafted look.
• Craft and DIY Projects: An excellent component for high-end crafting, including journal covers, bespoke gift wrapping, memory boxes, and mixed-media art, where a detailed, textural element is required.
