This luxurious linen sheet was most likely created by a bride, who hand embroidered it with her initials with room for the initial of her intended! The heavily padded embroidery and design is excellent! I purchased from a French dealer, however I think it might be Italian. The drawn work is fabulous with intricate needle woven X in Squares every 10 ". The 5" deep lace was hand made to turn the corners all around the 34" turn down. It measures 91" X 114"...

This precious clock has such intricate detail in the work. You can see the feathers on the lovebirds, cherub facial features and even more. I just love the figures of the cherubs, the smallest has hands clasped behind...maybe waiting for me to turn off the alarm.!
Well I have gotten rather attached as I have used it nightly to make sure it works well, and it does! A true delight to see first thing in the morning.
The clock was made by the German Globe Co.,and is also marked under the base...
