A short article from the journal Art et Décoration reporting on a design competition for a lace table cloth with a table runner, to be worked in Venetian point lace. It discusses the three prize-winning designs: Victor Blanc (first prize, wildflowers and poppies), Léon Balthazard (second prize, wheat ears and wild roses) and Marie-Louise Roullet (third prize, irises and dragonflies). The jury critiques each design and argues for new designs in lace rather than copies of Renaissance models. Illustrations reproduce the prize-winning lace designs.
