An Italian-language Hoepli manual on bobbin lace (trine a fuselli) in Italy, covering the origin of laces, rivalries and comparisons with other countries, early lace, and a classification of lace types. It then surveys regional traditions in Venice, Milan, Genoa, Naples, the Abruzzi and Florence, with historical documents, sumptuary laws and bibliographic notes. Some 200 illustrations, mostly photographs of lace and line drawings of pricked patterns (cartoncini punteggiati), accompany technical instructions on working with bobbins. The scan ends with a Hoepli publisher's catalog.
