A whitework embroidered tulle and quilted blue satin cover, 1930s, embroidered MR below a coronet, 117 by 87cm; together with an aqua satin coverlet applied with cotton bobbin lace c.1915, 180 by 148cm; four whitework or Brussels lace covered cushion panels,1860s, assorted linen layette sets; and approx 50 cotton baby dresses and petticoats (qty) Lots 454 to 477 provenance: Taken from West Horsley Place, Surrey. Property of the Mary Roxburghe Trust Lace collecting was a popular and deemed genteel occupation for ladies in the late 19th century. This group of lace and baby clothes in this sale was mainly put together by Margaret (known as Peggy) Marchioness of Crewe, her great aunt Lucy Cohen (sister to Juliana, Lady de Rothschild), and Peggy's daughter Mary, the 9th Duchess of Roxburghe. It includes monogrammed handkerchiefs belonging to Peggy's mother Hannah de Rothschild who married the Earl of Rosebery in 1878. The baby clothes probably come from the de Rothschild, Rosebery, Roxburghe and Crewe family lines. Lady Crewe's catalogue of her collection is dated 1910. Her great aunt Lucy died in 1906 and presumably left her own collection to Peggy as notes dotted within the collection attest. The Rosebery, Roxburghe, Crewe and Rothschild women were some of the richest, influential women of their day - noted sometimes for their beauty (in the case of Peggy and Mary) or their political, philanthropic interests (Hannah and Lucy). When Peggy (Marchioness of Crewe) died in 1967 she left the tudor red brick house - West Horsley Place - to her daughter Mary, Duchess of Roxburghe, who in turn bequeathed it to her nephew Bamber Gascoigne in 2014. The money raised will be used to restore the house and set up an opera in the estate grounds. CONDITION REPORT: Whitework embroidered tulle and quilted blue satin cover - good condition; aqua satin coverlet - satin is worn at edges, stained and with wear; whitework handkerchief pillow covers - some soiling and slight staining, one is distressed, one with 1cm hole
