    The Irish Industries Lace Depot in Dublin`s Grafton Street was one of the most important retailing outlets for Irish lace while Arnott and Co was another. Harrod’s in London commissioned lace gowns which were displayed in their shop windows. The Princess of Wales wore a Youghal shawl when she married the future king Edward VII and, in 1873, Queen Victoria invited Youghal lace makers to Buckingham Palace to demonstrate their art. Queen Mary`s wedding dress train was made of Youghal and contained 5,250,000 stitches made from nearly 12 miles of thread.

    I see the bebrollied priest of drogheda is in this picture too. Seems to have glammed up a bit for the capital.

    The Irish Lace Depot, whose interior is illustrated here, was purchased by Lady Aberdeen from the family of the lace dealer, Ben Lindsay, on his death. Apart from its sales, it provided another important service, because it supplied designs and materials. Lady Aberdeen also organized a sales outlet in London and part of the profits from the Chicago Exhibition was used to set up a depot there. irishartsreview.com/gpairisartsrevi/pdf/1988/20492056.pdf... Still no dates though.

    derangedlemur "I see the bebrollied priest of drogheda is in this picture too. Seems to have glammed up a bit for the capital." They had women priests (bebrollied or otherwise) in those days??? I wonder what all the fuss is about now so? It looks more like a lady with a parasol though on closer examination but as you said it just MIGHT be a priest who has glammed up a bit;-)

Unidentified people on the verandah of Araluen at Redcliffe

    "Araluen" was a house that was located on Whytecliffe Parade, Woody Point. The image is double exposed with people swimming in the ocean. It must have been a holiday house as there was a number of people who stayed there noted in the Brisbane Courier in the 1920s. It was "FOR LET" by D. Shields, Woody Point.
