Limerick tambour lace

Limerick tambour lace is a form of embroidered net lace, made with a machine-made net (tulle) and using chain stitch and a tambour hook for decoration. It should not be confused with Limerick run lace. It was made in Limerick, Ireland, from about 1829, when Mr Charles Walker set up a lace manufacturing business.
