A 1921 article by Margaret Taylor Johnstone describing the lace collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris after its rearrangement. She surveys early Italian linenwork and needlepoint, Venetian points, and the Points de France, Argentan and Alençon, with notes on Flemish rabats. She also discusses the Colbert monopoly, the dispersal of lace-workers after 1685 and 1789, and the difficulty of attributing and authenticating Point de France. Illustrated with photographs of an Italian altar cloth, a Point de France flounce and a Venetian cut parchment pattern.

An article by Margaret Taylor Johnstone asking what the lace of Ragusa (Dubrovnik, Dalmatia) actually was, given its fame in France and its scant mention in Italy. She argues that a group of needle laces, mostly in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, should be reassigned from Italy to Ragusa. Her marks of Ragusan work are the knotted punto avorio and punto di Ragusa stitch, Byzantine designs, a double-stitch ground, and rosaces with five, six, ten, twelve or sixteen petals rather than Venice's eight-pointed star. She sorts the laces into four historical groups from the 16th to the early 18th century, from geometric cutwork-like work to grounded laces. She also describes the stitch (after Dillmont), its survival at Parre and Valle Vogna, and related oya lace. Eleven photographic plates illustrate specimens.
