A doily (or doilies) is a small ornamental mat usually made of cotton or linen placed underneath a dish or bowl. Openwork allows the table surface to show through. In addition to their decorative function, doilies have a utilitarian role, protecting fine wood furniture from scratches from crockery. Accent Linens offer a wide variety of crochet lace doilies, hand cutwork embroidered linen doilies and doilies made of battenberg lace. We carry a wide variety of shapes and sizes. With a substantial design that draws on tradition, our hand Crochet Lace doilies recall childhood memories of grandmother's crochet.
