Object Description
Linen oval trimmed with handmade cotton tatting. The tatting is in the shape of a flower with six petals. Within each petal is another flower with eight petals.
Origin
This belonged to the donor's mother Koula (Lazou) Counelis who came to America to marry the donor's father, Antonio Counelis in Chicago Heights, IL. She was born in Karistos, Eubea, Greece. After Chicago Heights, her and her husband moved to Berwyn, IL, where she lived for 44 years and died at the age of 96. The linen was manufactured, while the cotton border was handmade.
Tatting is using a series of knots and loops to make the fabric more durable. It was made to imitate point lace.
