What you’ll find

What Idrija Lace School (Čipkarska šola Idrija) is known for

Founded in 1876, the Idrija Lace School keeps the bobbin-lace tradition of this mining town alive, training around 500 students a year and selling framed lace pieces through its own shop. The 'Quick Silver' line borrows patterns from Idrija's mercury-mining history, translating them into lace panels priced for serious collectors.
