A private collection of Romanian Point lace doilies and mats made by Marina Sorescu and her mother, Elena Urziceanu, with two pieces by her mother-in-law, Georgetta Biro. The introductory page, given in English and Romanian, describes the technique: crocheted braids are couched onto a prepared pattern, the gaps are filled with needle lace stitches, and the finished lace is washed, ironed and starched. The work took one to six months or more per piece. The remaining pages are photographs of the finished lace pieces, each shown with a measuring tape for scale.
