The Love of Lace celebrates this enchanting fabric from its beginnings as crude open cutwork in the 14th century to the height of lace mania-when over a quarter of Europe's workers were employed as lace makers-to laces today and how to use and care for them. Gracing Catherine Calvert's richly informative text are Cynthia Hart's exquisite compositions mixing antique laces with fresh flowers, silver heirlooms, bibelots, a faded photograph.
Fine enough to be drawn through a wedding band or heavily worked for a dining table, lace is the highest expression of the needleworker's art, a poem in thread-and The Love of Lace is universal.

Von der hinteren Coverseite
From the crude open cutwork of the fourteenth century to the glories of Alencon, Chantilly, Mechlin and Valenciennes, THE LOVE OF LACE celebrates the highest expression of the needleworker's art. Gracing the pages are collages, mixing exquisite antique laces with fresh flowers and silver heirlooms, bibelots and luscious portraits.
Fine enough to be drawn through a wedding band or heavily worked for a dining table, lace is a poem in thread, the fabric of romance. The love of lace is universal.
CYNTHIA HART is a noted designer and co-author of A Victorian Scrapbook; Joy to the World: A Victorian Christmas; Forget-Me-Nots: A Victorian Book of Love; Parlor Cats: A Victorian Celebration; and The Victoriana Calendar.
CATHERINE CALVERT, editor-at-large at Victoria magazine, wrote Having Tea and Cradle and All, published by Clarkson N. Potter.
