[lace] Kant in de Gouden Eeuw: Lace in the Golden Age

[Nicole Gauthier]

While taking part in the Forum Italia Invita in May, I could buy this 
wonderful book and also, a complement to it:' Kloppelspitzen an den 
Wertheimer Abendmahlshauben'. This is a softcover book with beautiful 
pictures of headdresses  from the  Wertheimer museum with 9 patterns, 
published by Marianna Stang and her sister Anneliese Wienands.

Also,during my trip,I found the book 'Bobbin Lace from Steckborn'  
published by VSS/FDS, the swiss lacemaker association. The book speaks 
about the history of lacemaking in that area, a part is of torchon type 
with a special 'little mosquito' design and another part is lace made 
of horsehair and straw. The thirs part consists of 35 reconstructed 
lace patterns from the museum, mainly with corners.

At Italia Invita, I also bought Punto Venezia , book on which Tamara 
gave a very good review.
