€15–€120Merletto a tombolo from the aquilana tradition in L'Aquila
Merletto a tombolo is a decorative textile made by intertwining threads on a cylindrical cushion called a tombolo, using small wooden bobbins. The work is done entirely by hand through a slow and precise process that allows artisans to create complex ornamental patterns.
The result is a light yet durable lace characterized by a regular structure and geometric or floral designs. Each piece is unique, with variations that reflect the direct handwork and the artisan’s skill.
It can be used as a decorative element for the home or preserved as a handcrafted object.
