"Valentia" : This amazingly intricate piece of lace was hand made by my great grandmother, Valentia It is in the branscomb style and includes over 200 thread covered rings that surround a 21 point center sunburst. To complement the center piece, the canopy is bordered by a delicate 4 inch long fringe that gently falls over the sides and sways in the wind.
"Agatha" : This art deco inspired canopy is hand beaded and edged with a scalloped trim. The six point geometrical center design is composed from a variety of silver bugle beads, dusty purple flat sequins and tapers out into smoky crystals at ends of each of the points. The beading and trim shimmer and glistens in the light.

"Elizabeth" : A classic canopy in creams and gold crafted with cut out lace, layers of metallic fabric, pearls and beads. This symmetrical layout features a delicate center star defined by pearl beads and surrounded by a circle of lace flowers. The corner is embroidered with the names and date of the couple married under the canopy and it will now be passed down to younger siblings.
"Middleton" : This all ivory design has varying levels of opacity. A clean modern lace seamlessly floats within the borders of this sheer canopy. The large opaque center star is opened up and is created from six separate triangles, each delicately attached around the center hexagon. The entire canopy appears seamless.
"Vineyard" : Vineyard has a natural and organic layout, symbolizing your growing family tree. Each leaf is hand sewn and connected to an embroidered ombre colored thread vine. Gold tubular beads adorn the base of the leaves as the veins. Cut out lace of flowers and branches make up the center star. The leaves of this canopy can be customized to represent the families that are coming together.
