Made in the USA by the American Fabrics Company as shown by the RN 21259 on the paper tag it was made at the Bridgeport Connecticut factory. By 1959 AFC employed over 500 workers to manufacture in 300, 000 square feet of space. It produced 25% of the United States Cluny Lace on over 300 looms. AFC made lace and fabrics in Bridgeport from 1909 until 1992. After a prolonged strike AFC moved all operations to the Southern US. The Bridgeport buildings became a haven for the artistic community.

This lace has never been used and is in Mint Vintage Condition ready to be a superb accent for you however you choose to use it. Although there were originally 36 yards on this roll 16 and 1/2 of those remain.

As you can see the original price was just $.25 a yard back in the decade when this was made.

There are no faded areas snags odors or issues of any kind.

I unrolled it completely to check the entire piece for quality to get the length for this listing and then rolled it again onto the plastic holder.

I purchased this as part of the remaining inventory from a fabric and notions store that had gone out of business years ago. Please check out my other listings for some wonderful sewing supplies that are in Excellent Vintage Condition.

The advantage of vintage trims is they tend to be better constructed using higher quality materials than today's trims. There are also colors and patterns not seen for generations.

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in Bradenton, FL.
