RE: [lace] Re: Kopek/Whirlpool filling
Hi Fellow Arachnids,
Thank you for posting the photos, Clare. I can now see that both Kopek (a
small Russian coin) and whirlpool fillings are what we would call a Russian
spider.
Happy Lace Making,
Joepie, in overcast but relatively warm Sussex, UK; {About 14C where it would
normally be 4-7 C. :-)}

I discovered that a kopek is a heck of a lot of different things in
different languages when I tried to Google for an answer to my question!
Anyway, thanks in no small part to a very patient Sue Babbs I have now
uploaded three photos to the Arachne Flickr page showing the top and
underside of a kopek filling <.

Anyway, thanks in no small part to a very patient Sue Babbs I have now uploaded three photos to the Arachne Flickr page showing the top and underside of a kopek filling on a wire frame and a kopek filling in a Russian Lace pendant, so any one wanting to see what this thing is, can go and look at the piccies.

RE: [lace] Re: Kopek/Whirlpool filling
A kopek is a Russian coin. That makes sense as a name for this filling because it is round. Whirlpool is an excellent descriptor, as well. "Whirlpool Filling and Kopek Filling are the same thing, I am told that Bridget Cook gave them an English name when she wrote Russian Lace Making."
