Jewelry Lace
The bobbin lace is a testimony to the rich folk’s imagination and to the diligence, precision, and patience of the bobbin lace makers who sit for hours in front of the “punkel” to create a small pattern.
For many decades, bobbin lace was the only source of income for many families, especially in the poorer mining and hill areas.
Bobbin lace products were also companions of many rituals and customs, from baptism to marriage and death.
A bobbin lace school was founded in Idrija in 1876 and has been in continuous operation ever since.
Recently there are more and more designers who use lacework patterns in contemporary designs.
They are using some of the old, cobwebby patterns that were woven from thin, even thinner, and thinnest threads so that a lady’s collar had to be ‘just a breath’.

Kneeling was once a domestic activity, which was mainly done by women in the countryside and in this way supported their families. Crocheted lace products were also the companions of many customs and customs, from baptism to marriage and death.
In 1963, there were still 13,000 lace-makers working in our localities, but in the last decade kneeling has almost ceased. Therefore, it is all the more gratifying that recently more and more designers are using lace patterns in modernly designed products. They use some old, spidery patterns that were woven from thin, even thinner and thinnest threads, and the lady’s collar had to be “just breath. ”
