| Abstract: | The Gozitan love affair with lace started over a century ago. This passion for lace making was transferred from mother to daughter. From the 1850s to the 1960s, traditional lace making had an important economic value for Malta. Naomi Galea met Consiglia Azzopardi, a Gozitan lace maker. But Consiglia also designs patterns for lace and teaches lace making techniques. She has researched its history, its different techniques and its development in various countries, writing many articles, two bestselling books and reading for a PhD on the topic. Consiglia Azzopardi has herself built up a one of Malta's most wonderful and impressive collections of lace from different times. |
