BOBBIN LACE CREATIONS

We are glad to display a unique collection of handmade bobbin lace creations that follow the traditional style used in Sicily.

Bobbin lace is very fine, precise and intricate work.

The first traces of bobbin lace (“Tombolo” in Italian) were found at the beginning of the 15th century in Italy.

The art of bobbin lace reached Sicily in 1910. A wealthy woman named Angelina Auteri who had previously learned the art of Tombolo in a convent in Rome, called four nuns to move to Mirabella Imbacarri to teach the local women this same art.

Over the years, the Mirabellese bobbin lace has been handed down from mother to daughter and has become one of the finest laces in Italy!

Sicilian bobbin lace has distinguished itself for its elegance and the peculiar style of its designs embellished by the influences of Baroque style.

Bobbin lace is a very fine and elaborate handicraft that requires a lot of skill and patience.

Today’s existing embroiderers can spend many hours a day for days, weeks, and even years to finish a project.

This is why the artisans who continue this wonderful art are so few, and their works are so precious!

Whether it’s a figure of the Madonna, a Sicily shaped pattern, a jewelry creation, or a refined trousseau for your wedding, you will enrich yourself or your home with the charming elegance of the Sicilian heritage!
