This pillow sham is part of a set that includes TE*T14468A, the Augusta Virginia Banner Panel. The top of the pillow sham has sprigs of flowers in Brussels Duchesse bobbin lace with Alençon style needle lace ground and a strip of Venetian style needle lace. The center is backed with fine, plain weave linen fabric divided into two panels to allow for the insertion of a pillow. It is closed with five buttons and buttonholes and edged with an insertion of Point de Paris bobbin lace. All lace and sewing was done by hand by Belgian lace makers during World War I.
