Collection: Dentelle de Calais lace

Legend has it that a sailor brought seaweed from distant seas as a gift to his beloved. The woman, wanting to preserve its beauty, replicated the design and the holes using needle and thread: and this is how lace was born. Where? In Italy, more precisely in Venice. However, it was in 19th century England that manufacturing techniques were perfected: thanks to the industrial revolution the first machine fabrics began to be produced and in 1809 John Heathcoat invented the machines that allowed the processing of Dentelle de Calais Leavers . Lace has always been synonymous with great elegance - just think that Napoleon made it obligatory in court clothing - the wedding dresses of Grace Kelly, Lady Diana and Kate Middleton remain unforgettable.
