A short illustrated article from The Magazine of Art, described as the last paper written by Mrs. Bury Palliser, sketching the early history of lace. It traces lace from convent work and open-work embroidery through cut-work, lacis, point coupé, drawn-work and reticella, and discusses Renaissance pattern books such as Vinciolo's. Illustrations show Venetian point, Reticella (Greek lace from Zante), Passement au fuseau and Point coupé from Vinciolo.
