In the book of Schneeberger Spitze van Annelie van Olffen-Spikerman is also a
chapter included in which the history of Schneeberger Lace is described.
Annelie van Olffen originated from the area around Schneeberg. She had her
education at the Barbara Uttmann Klöppelschule in Schneeberg. Now
In the introduction to her book of original patterns for Schneeberger lace
(2004), Lia Baumeister gives a short history of Schneeberger Lace: it
developed around 1915 in Schneeberg in Erzgebirge Germany, evolved from
Austria (Vienna) lace. The outside characteristic plait was added in 1935.
