The utility model relates to a decorative hollow product which is made of cotton thread, hemp thread, silk thread or various fabrics and is embroidered or woven. In China, it is commonly known as spinning.
In the tombs of ancient Egypt from the 4th to the 5th century A.D., there were similar lace of drawing and embroidery. This kind of lace is also found in ancient Peruvian cultural relics. In the middle ages, European lace production was concentrated in monasteries, and the products were used for altar decoration and monk clothes. After the Renaissance, lace production generally developed. In the paintings of Italy, Belgium and France in the 15th century, it can be seen that the edge of figure clothing and chair cushion is inlaid with delicate narrow lace. In the 16th century, Italy, Germany and France all produced needlework. In this period, the main patterns of needlework lace are scroll leaf pattern and flower pattern. In the 1920s, the production of lace in Germany was more popular, and books and periodicals about the pattern of net lace were published. In 1542, Italy published the first sample of embroidery and lace patterns. In the 16th century, Belgians and northern France developed a new kind of lace for winding pipes (i.e. club and mallet lace). The 17th century was a prosperous period of lace production in Europe. After 1650, the needlework lace in Venice, Italy, was famous for its fine labor and high price. In France, during the period of Louis XIV (1643-1714), J.B. Colbert, the Minister of state, invited lace artists from Italy and Belgium to teach skills and produce light French lace in cities such as saidang. In the 18th century, French and Belgian lace were characterized by light weight and exquisiteness. In the 19th century, there were institutional frills in Europe. In 1813, the lace loom was invented by J. rivers of England. After 1840, the performance of lace loom has been quite perfect, which has affected the production of hand lace. At that time, there was a process of imitating venetian lace with crochet in Ireland, which was called crochet lace. Since the 19th century, the production of European lace has gradually declined. The origin of handmade lace has shifted to China, Turkey, Sri Lanka in Asia, Paraguay, Brazil in Latin America and other countries. After the first World War, except for a few lace products for exhibition in Europe that were made by hand, the production of hand lace almost stopped, and machine-made lace became the main variety.
