The Antique: Antique Italian Cutwork

In 2004-2005 the experience of the intense activity at the Workshop and the School of Giuliana Buonpadre crystallised to form a chain of embroidery manuals entitled 'The Antique' (…….embroidery stitches), which she wrote and illustrated not only to propagate knowledge and techniques, but also to preserve the memory of a patrimony which has always allowed women to be in intimate contact with 'beauty'.
This is the fifth book with a Collection of designs for Antique Italian Cutwork (from the Veneto) with motifs in fur sided stitch, faggot stitch, satin stitch, bullion knots and reticella. Instructions for the working of a tablecloth. Photographs with working suggestions and published in three languages (Italian, French, English).
68 pages.
