A Norwegian-language history of old lace by Irma Gram, published in Kristiania in 1921. It surveys needle and bobbin lace country by country: Italy, Sicily, Flanders and Brabant, France, England, Ireland, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, and briefly Russia, Germany and Austria. It also covers machine-made lace and ends with a guide to identifying lace as sewn, bobbined or machine-made. The text discusses materials, tools, bobbin lace stitches, grounds (réseau), fashion history and the lace industry, and is illustrated with numbered photographic figures and two plates of magnified details.
