Sally I don't know exactly what the lace making tradition in Brittany is. But I have seen some recent posts online of traditional headgear for women, somewhat like the fontage (frontage??) If you look through this album of people wearing lace, you will find about 4 or 5 photos. The lace headdresses are clearly bobbin lace (I think), which suggests a local bobbin lace history. But I don't know anything more specific than that.
