Guipure lace – high-quality embellishments at attractive prices

Guipure lace is a type of lace characterized by large, openwork patterns and raised designs, often featuring floral, botanical, or geometric motifs. It stands out for its lack of background – the patterns are connected only by fine threads, giving it a light and airy appearance.

Its origins date back to the 16th century, when it was handcrafted using bobbin lace techniques with special spools and threads. Considered a Venetian lace, it was a symbol of luxury and exceptional craftsmanship. Traditionally made from cotton, linen, or silk, today it is primarily produced from synthetic fibers, making it more accessible.

Over time, guipure lace has evolved from artisanal craft to machine production, while retaining its decorative charm. Guipure beautifully enhances the ornamental character of curtains and drapes – discover the Polontex S.A. collection of high-quality guipure lace at attractive prices.
