Genoese lace developed in the 16th century, imitating in its rigid tooth-like triangles the contemporary needlepoint lace Punto in Aria. When the fashion of collars turned towards soft falling bands, Genoese changed accordingly, being scalloped edged now and made of thicker thread, densely worked.

Dentelle aux fuseaux italienne développée au 16e siècle [qui] imitait les triangles rigides de sa contemporaine, la dentelle «Punto in Aria». Quand la mode changea pour des cols en bandes molles, elle suivit le courant et opta pour des bords plus arrondis et fut travaillée dans des fils plus épais, et dans des motifs plus denses (et donc plus lourds).

The name "Point d’Angleterre" was given to a Flemish lace produced at the time when the law prohibiting the importation of foreign laces(in England and France) was being strictly enforced. It is a mixed technique of very fine bobbin lace(Duchesse) on a needlepoint net with needle lace motifs for the fillings. The wealth of floral designs and the fineness of the petals, pearls, and snowdrops in the appliqué work are perfectly balanced. This type of lace reached its peak in Flanders during the 19th century.  1, record 12, English, - point%20d%26rsquo%3BAngleterre

Point d'Angleterre. Cette dentelle belge, qui représente des fleurs, des gens, des animaux et même parfois des scènes bibliques, date de la fin du 17e siècle. C'est une dentelle qui n'est pas en continu et des fils courent sur l'endos. Elle n'a pas de cordonnet de soie mais les bords des motifs étaient en relief pour les détails intérieurs, comme les séparations de feuilles ou de pétales, un détail qui la différencie des dentelles Mechlin et des autres dentelles belges. Le fond est fait d'un filet de Bruxelles (Brussels reseau) et occasionnellement avec des remplissages à l'aiguille. Son nom de «point d'Angleterre» vient de l'interdit du roi Charles II contre l'importation de dentelles étrangères pour promouvoir l'art local. En changeant son nom, elle passa facilement à la douane.  1, record 12, French, - point%20d%27Angleterre
