Download or read book Lace Its Origin and History written by Samuel L. Goldenberg and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lace. Its Origin and History. Originally published in 1904. Many of the earliest books on weaving, textiles and needlework, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. The purpose of this book is to present to those whose relation to lace is primarily a commercial one a compendium that may, perchance, in times of doubt, serve as a practical guide. Most of these works, necessarily voluminous and replete with detail, are more for the connoisseur or dilettante than for the busy man of affairs upon whom the practical aspect of lace always forces itself.
Download or read book Lace and Lace Making written by Alice-May Bullock and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of lace are probably in net-work, which is referred to in the Bible and has been found in Egyptian tombs. The more elaborate forms, such as needlepoint and bobbin lace, did not appear until the fifteenth or sixteenth century. It is generally agreed that needlepoint lace was developed in Italy while bobbin lace was developed in Flanders, and it was from Flanders and other European countries that thousands of Protestants fled to England to escape religious persecution, bringing their lace making skills with them. Lace and Lace Making charts the early history of this craft, and then recounts how various European forms were adapted. The book describes how the bobbin lace industry operated, with home workers selling their work to touring lace dealers, and how this cottage industry was disastrously affected by the introduction of lace making machines in the second half of the eighteenth century. The book also talks about lace schools, their customs and holiday celebrations, the lace tells that were recited while working, the many attractive and historically interesting bobbin inscriptions, the numerous laws that were made regulating the wearing of lace and the ways that were found to circumvent these laws-such as smuggling. A great amount of detailed research has gone into producing this book, which provides a fascinating account of a once important craft industry that is now enjoying a welcome revival.
