Bobbin lace is a handmade lace interlacing threads on a pillow made following a previously drawing on cardboard or chopped.
The historical origin of lace is usually set in the mid-sixteenth century and supposedly born in Venice.
But we must go back to the ancient civilizations of the East to find their first traces.
