Vintage Hand Worked Large Embroidered Doily Ballerinas Upcycle 48cm x 34cm

Item: this is a large vintage doiley with a double ballerina design - going by the stitching, I would say it's incomplete, but almost done. The base is white.
Era: 1950s or before
Size: 48cm at the widest and 34cm at the longest
Condition: This piece has marks but has a lot of area to upcycle - please see photos. The last photo shows a ruler and the back of the doily.

I am now uploading general antique or vintage textiles for people to use as-is or to upcycle into something sublime. I was building packs around these old pieces but I thought people would like to choose their own pieces and build their own packs to enjoy.

The doilies I upload will vary in condition and will suit a range of uses - either perfect to use as-is or damaged/aged. I will do my best to note anything glaring above.

I am not a doily expert and encourage you to view the photos of the item. I know collectors can age doilies within a split-second, so I encourage those of you who collect these pieces to view the photos to see the condition and embroidery detail.
