A non-lacemaking friend of mine was in Turkey and bought some lace which
was sold as 'handmade'. When she gave it to me she said that she had
bought it for me because it looked interesting, but was not convinced it
was hand made. When I opened the tissue I saw two small pieces of Oya
lace, I assured her it was hand made. She beamed with joy.
Moral of the story, many non lace makers are skeptical of 'hand made
lace' but buy it if it appeals to them.

The Brussels article is so interesting! I wonder how many unsuspecting
tourists buy machine lace as handmade lace.
