Exquisite lace at the Bowes Museum, County Durham.
Here the world's most expensive lace at the time - raised needlelace from Venice, dating from the 17th century.
This is what it would have looked like on a dress. A fabulous costume section at the Museum - details of a temporary exhibition by artist Sarah Casey here.
