A short promotional brochure for the Scuola Merletti Burano, the Burano Lace School founded in 1872 under the patronage of Queen Margherita, with a sales outlet in Venice and workshop in Burano. It lists the needle lace articles generally in stock (tablecloths, table sets, bridal veils, scarves, fichus, collars, fans, lace by the meter) and notes that all items carry the school's trademark. Photographs show a cradle trimmed with Burano point lace given to the Prince and Princess of Piedmont, and a lace-trimmed rochet given to the Pope after the Lateran Accords. Text is in Italian, French, English and German.
