To all whmim't mag concern: i

Be itknown that I, LILLIAN A. STRAS'? BURGER, a citizen of the United Statestresid, 7'

ing in the; borough of Manhattan, city of New York, county of. New York, andState .of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Ornamental W ork, Si1nilar to Lace or DraWnlVOrlgof which uses of lace or drawn-work or thellike,;and

.7 possessing numerous "novel characteristics 7 and capabilities. 7 It constitutes in effect a rigid, Y or semi-rigid, ornamental open-work, suitable for panels of various descriptions,

t for'lamp-shades 'andiforthe construction of many other articles andelements of design.

Theproduct comprises an open wire 'net, that is to say a'net substantially rigid as compared with a thread "net for example,

and a design of thread, cord or yarn, "of v o wool, cotton, silk or Ot'llGPl'DittQllfll, colored or uncolored, embroidered or wound in and out of themeshesj o flthe net The'man'ner of disposing or leading the thread may be widely varied, it being possible either to simulate various kinds of lace or needlework,

or to produce eflects distinctly novel in their character. 'In one form of the'invention 7 beads are combined as an element ofvthe fabric. I produced in this way, for lamp-shades and other 'trai'isparencies, as well as. other pur Beautifulvand unique results can be poses,through the use, particularly, of combinations of different .colored threads ,or

i yarn and beads also of different colors.
