Nathalie There are 2 differences between Tenerife and nanduti lace. 1. Nanduti creates little odd shaped bits to fit between the main motifs. Diamonds with curved sites, triangles, scallops along the outer perimeter. Look here for tenerife: http://www.rendasol.org.br/proposta-es.php
2. The working setup. Tenerife is usually made on some kind of form -- wood, cardboard, plastic -- where the form is only slightly larger than the finished lace. But nanduti is usually worked onto a large pieces of cloth, mounted into a rectangular flat slat wooden frame. The cloth is only a temporary backing, which is cut away from the lace when the piece is finished.
