Tønder lace



Tønder lace is a point-ground type of handmade bobbin lace identified with the Tønder region since about 1850, although lace of many types has been made there since as early as 1650. The handmade lace industry gradually ceased to be economically important to the region after the introduction of machine-made lace, although it never died out entirely, and is still made today, mostly by hobbyists.
