A short article from International Studio describing a lace shawl traditionally called the "Marie Antoinette" shawl, in guipure antique / point de France style. It gives the provenance: made for Queen Marie Leszczynska, passed to Marie Antoinette, then through a line of French noblewomen to its owner, Vicomte de Tardy de Montravel. It also gives the triangular shape and dimensions. Two pages of photographs show the whole shawl and a detail of the pattern.
