Hi there

Babelfish has Fils Coupes meaning wire cuts - does that mean the lace 
i am looking at is made from fine wire rather than thread?

Hi Jenny,

I have seen File Coupes referring to part laces where motifs are completed 
separately and then either attached to each other or filled in with a ground.  
This would be as opposed to Fils continus which would be the straight, 
continuous laces.  Duchesse and Honiton are fils coupes, while Binche and 
Torchon are straight laces.
