Antique early 19th century hand Mechlin edging lace garland motif

Antique hand Mechlin edging lace dating to the early 19th century. In a charming light and airy design, with the silky flat cordonnet and the finest hand reseau. In excellent condition in two lengths, I see two small breaks. One piece measures 31" by 3 the other 32" by 3 both with same design motifs. Out of a large private collection of early laces, assembled in Paris circa 1900-1910.
