Machine netting had been recently invented and could be made rapidly on a loom. Prior to this era all fine netting was made by hand by lacemakers and when used in lace would be referred to as a "reseau", or ground. There were different types of netting pattern, some diamond-shaped, some hexagonal, etc., depending on the type of lace.<br /><br />Very best,<br /><br />NatalieZipZiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02086335016901683883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18213663.post-79665770474960663642016-02-09T23:13:26.068-05:002016-02-09T23:13:26.068-05:00What do you suppose opera netting is?
