In a tiny village in the mountains of Gorski Kotar, we came upon a woman who works day and night to create THE most beautiful lace pieces we've every seen! This lace-making is a passion of hers, it is her form of self-expression, and it is an art form from Croatia that without a doubt should be protected and preserved.
Crochet and lace making is an old folk art also known as "drawing" with a thread! Ðurđa Pintar Janes learned this art as a small girl from her family and is mainly self-taught due to her enthusiasm and love of crochet.
This SENSATIONAL piece is a beautiful ROSE-RED in color, with a lovely pattern edged in metallic, glittery thread, perfect for the holidays! It measures a generous 6.5 inches in diameter.
