Powerhouse Museum Lace Collection: Glossary of Terms Used in the Documentation – Blue Files and Collection Notebooks
Book Appendix Glossary 12-02 Powerhouse Museum Lace Collection: Glossary of terms used in the documentation – Blue files and collection notebooks. Rosemary Shepherd: 1983 to 2003 The following references were used in the documentation. For needle laces: Therese de Dillmont, The Complete Encyclopaedia of Needlework, Running Press reprint, Philadelphia, 1971 For bobbin laces: Bridget M Cook and Geraldine Stott, The Book of Bobbin Lace Stitches, A H & A W Reed, Sydney, 1980 The principal historical reference: Santina Levey, Lace a History, Victoria and Albert Museum and W H Maney, Leeds, 1983 In compiling the glossary reference was also made to Alexandra Stillwell’s Illustrated dictionary of lacemaking, Cassell, London 1996 General lace and lacemaking terms A border, flounce or edging is a length of lace with one shaped edge (headside) and one straight edge (footside). The headside shaping may be as insignificant as a straight or undulating line of picots, or as pronounced as deep ‘van Dyke’ scallops. ‘Border’ is used for laces to 100mm and ‘flounce’ for laces wider than 100 mm and these are the terms used in the documentation of the Powerhouse collection. The term ‘lace edging’ is often used elsewhere instead of border, for very narrow laces. An insertion is usually a length of lace with two straight edges (footsides) which are stitched directly onto the mounting fabric, the fabric then being cut away behind the lace. Ocasionally lace insertions are shaped (for example, square or triangular motifs for use on household linen) in which case they are entirely enclosed by a footside. See also ‘panel’ and ‘engrelure’ A lace panel is usually has finished edges, enclosing a specially designed motif. -

BY THE LOUISIANA PURCHASE EXPOSITION COMPANY, FOR THE OFFICIAL CATALOGUE COMPANY. .! •! • PREFACE. It is estimated that more than a million objects exposed in the various displays installed within the Palaces of the Universal Exposition of St. Louis, 1904. To properly classify, group and arrange alphabetically all of the exhibits of an Expo- sition of such international scope, is a task of character and proportions as to make it quite impossible to provide a complete catalogue of these exhibits on the opening day of the Exposition. This edition of the Official Catalqgue is, therefore, presented preliminary to the revised and complete catalogue which will be ready and issued within a few weeks, and to the preparation of which, in realization of its extraordinary value as a docu- ment of general and commercial reference, especial care is being given. The present volume, however, it is believed, represents the most complete cata- logue ever presented at the opening of an International Exposition. It capably serves the purpose for which it is designed, as an early index of the infinite variety of interesting exhibits which are the concrete evidences of the industrial, educational and artistic advancement of the world. -
A Working Vocabulary for the Study of Early Bobbin Lace 2015
A Working Vocabulary for the study of Early Bobbin Lace 2015 Introduction This is an attempt to define words used when discussing early bobbin lace; assembling the list has proved an incredibly difficult task! Among the problems are: the imprecision of the English language; the way words change their meaning over years/centuries; the differences between American English, English English and translations between English and other languages... The list has been compiled with the help of colleagues in Australia, Sweden, UK and USA; we come from very different experiences and in some cases it has been impossible to reach a precise definition that we all agree. In these cases either alternatives are given, or I have made decisions on which word to use. As the heading says, this is a working vocabulary, one I and others can use when studying early lace, and I am open to persuasion that different words and definitions might be better. 2015 Early bobbin lace - an open braid or fabric featuring plaits and twisted pairs, created by manipulation of multiple threads (each held on a small handle known as a bobbin); as made from the first half of the sixteenth century until an abrupt change in style in the1630s. Described in the sixteenth century as Bone Lace, also called Passamayne Lace (from the French for braid or trimming) or passement aux fuseaux. Reconstruction - a copy that, given the constraints of modern materials, is as close as possible to the original lace in size/proportion and technique. Interpretation - reproduction of lace from patterns or paintings, or where it is not possible to see the exact structure and/or proportions of the original lace Adaptation - taking an original lace, pattern or illustration and working it in a completely different material, scale or proportion. -

ENG / the Lace Museum, Burano
Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia — Lace Museum Burano ENG Building and history In 1978 the public administrations of Venice (the Town Council, Provincial Authorities, Chamber of Commerce, Tourist Boards) joined together with the Andriana Marcello Foundation in a “Consortium for Burano Lace”. This was the beginning of a campaign to revive and re-evaluate this art: the archives of the old School, full of important documents and drawings, were re-ordered and catalogued; the building was restructured and transformed into an exhibition site. This was the beginning of the Lace Museum. The museum is located at the historic palace of Podestà of Torcello, in Piazza Galuppi, Burano, seat of the famous Burano Lace School from 1872 to 1970. Rare and precious pieces offer a complete overview of the history and artistry of the Venetian and lagoon’s laces, from its origins to the present day are on display, in a picturesque setting decorated in the typical colors of the island. Lace, Museum, Piazza Galuppi, Burano Burano island > 1 Laces Merletto, pizzo, trina Are synonyms for lace which indicates artefacts obtained out of nowhere, without any textile support, by combining stitch upon stitch with needle and thread or interweaving a certain number of threads spooling off special reels, named bobbins. Other techniques use crochet hooks, knitting-needles, the tatting shuttle or, in macramé, simple knotting of threads by hand. Main technique typologies: needle and bobbins The point in air is made starting from a design, bordered by tacking (warping), raised above a wooden cylinder (murello) Lace, XVI century placed on a padded cylindrical cushion (cuscinello). -
