Eyelet textiles offer the light airy feel of true lace and the soft look of delicate embroidery. First created in 1763, eyelet was widely used for silk mitts, gloves, aprons, handkerchiefs, hoods and caps. Initially eyelet was primarily used in fashion, but was well suited for the home as bedding, accent pillows, skirts, throws and drapery, and traditionally sold in white or ivory. Schumacher’s Collection includes a variety of eyelets that offer a twist on this well-known classic.
Camilla Eyelet, a traditional, white-on-white sheer, features a delicate eyelet embroidered in a diamond on a fine cotton cambric ground.
Anastasia Eyelet is a fine embroidery that has been made in a design of tightly woven cotton cambric circles connected by open eyelet embroidery. This new white-on-white eyelet gives a lacy, delicately detailed look to curtains.
Luna Sheer Embroidery has an over scaled eyelet and circle design, for a more modern take on an embroidered sheer. The all ivory coloration is warm and soft and adaptable to the color schemes of many interiors.
