Point de Gaze Belgian needle lace was perhaps the last great form of handmade lace introduced by the commercial lace industry. Production spanned the wildly creative Victorian years, and shows a remarkable range of designs.
Elizabeth Kurella, author of the ultimate study guides to old lace, brings her special perspective on how to look at lace to a new level.
By looking through the eyes of a connoisseur, a critical judge of art, lacemakers will see what it takes to raise lacemaking to a fine art.
