The International Exhibition: grenadine crepe lace, by Messrs. Reckless and Hickling, 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: grenadine crepe lace, by Messrs. Reckless and Hickling, 1862. The firm of Reckless and Hickling, of Nottingham, one of the oldest and most eminent in the trade, make fancy goods a sort of specialty. The articles we have engraved are selected from a variety of the same class exhibited by this firm at the Great Exhibition, such as laces, flounces, tunics, mantles, shawls, half-shawls, coiffures, and barbes. They are made by the "pusher" machine, with the application of the jacquard, the fabric and pattern being made by the machine and the outline being entirely needlework-run. Being made in one piece, without joins or applique-work, they have an immense advantage over other kinds of machine-made lace, which are made in breadths and joined. These goods, as now made, nearly rival the handmade laces of Cambray, Chantilly, and Bayeux, whilst the difference in price is something wonderful. The designs are all by English artists employed on Messrs. Reckless and Hickling's premises'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862
