What reading level is Point And Pillow Lace a Short Account of Various Kinds Ancient And Modern And book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With the enrichment of numerous ** picots," and also some- times of ornamental " a jours " filling in the looped spaces, this Lace has often a very good though perhaps monotonous effect. It has been much used for church vestments, and was frequently of con- siderable width.
PUNTO DI MILANO.
(Eng. Milanese Pillow lace.) It is needless to say that neither this Lace nor ** Punto di Genoa** are rightly called **Punti" or Needle - point lace ; they are both made on the pillow. The name ** Punto di M...ilano" is, however, so commonly known in connection with it, that it would be pedantic not to recognise it, though with a protest. It was like the preceding Laces, of Genoese origin, but has survived till recent times in Cantu, near Milan. It is by far the most beautiful, as well as the best known of Italian Pillow laces. It much resembles the Genoese Tape Guipure, but with far less of monotony, and much more of graceful design in the style of its patterns. In some fine specimens, such as that represented in Illustration XVIII., coats M Digitized by VjOOQIC S2 OF ITALIAN PILLOW LACE of arms are often introduced, probably when the piece of Lace was made by order of some prelate or personage of noble family ; but as a rule easy-flowing scroll-work fills up the composition.
