Dear Devon,

Why don't you ask directly the author of the book?
Her name is Nora Andries and if you are interested i can give you her
address. I used to go to her classes on Turnhoutse lace in Germany a couple
of years ago.

[lace] Black silk Point de Paris

2020-04-17 Thread Devon Thein
According to the book Van speldengrond tot Turnhoutse Kant (about Turnhout
lace) "In Couvin, Beaumont, Cerfontaine and Marche lengths of lace were
made in black or white silk and in cotton. The point de Paris ground is
mostly combined with point ground. The aspect and the technique is
different from the Turnhout lace. The designs are simple and geometric and
look similar to the laces made in Normandy, Sweden and England."
I would be interested to know what the black silk point de Paris laces of
Couvin, Beaumont, Cerfontaine and Marche look like. I have encountered a
relatively simple black silk lace with point de Paris background. I am
wondering if it could be from one of these Belgian towns.
Does anyone know about these or how I could find out about them?
