Cassandra Hand Summer School of Clones Lace

Started as a famine relief scheme, during the 1847, Clones lace is based on Venetian Point Lace. The women of Clones made it their own by adapting it to include many local flowers. Clones Lace, as it became know, was world renowned for its delicate beauty.
