I have never heard of chemical lace. Reminds me of whitework but not exactly. Someone will have to enlighten us....

Here is a lace ID site. It has chemical lace listed but I cannot tell whether it is or not.

Hopefully Sue (bartondoll) will come by and be able to ID for you.

wow, great site linda.... I have bookmarked it..... thank you!

It could be classified as chemical lace, as the netting back has been
taken away. It is probably 60s and is machine made. There were a lot of
trims similar to this in the 60s/70s (actually they are still being produced).

I would just go with unique lace trim in your description.
