Text Appearing Before Image:
Fig. 144.—Light blonde of white silk (Caen). with thin silk thread, alternate with the compact partsof flat and stouter silken thread ; this variety is termedBlonde mi-genre. The mantilla, the national headdress of Spanishwomen in Europe and America, is made in both sorts ofblonde, blondes mates and blondes mi-genres; the Mexicanand Havannah patterns being bolder and heavierthan the European Spanish ones. Unfortunately the 304 II. LACES.
Text Appearing After Image:
Fig. 145.—Black close-patterned (mate) blonde (Spanish style made atBayeux). FROM LOUIS XV. TO THE PRESENT TIME. 305 mantilla is rapidly being supplanted by the modernbonnet and hat. Barcelona and Bayeux are the twoprincipal centres for the manufacture of mantillas; andone may hope that the Spaniards will not allow thislocal and characteristic head ornament to fall out of useand disappear. All the laces we have mentioned are made in lengthsor bands upon pillows or cushions; ornament andmeshed grounds being worked together. We are now, however, goingto notice those laces which aremade in small pieces to be after-wards joined together ; that is, byseparate flowers and bits of orna-ment, or in segments analogous tothose used in the needlepoint laceprocess. This manner of dividinga pattern for the pillow-lacemethod of work is certainly dueto Belgian initiative.
