Les tulles forment la base des effets lumineux sur scène. Le tulle gobelin qui comporte des motifs tissés en forme de dents de requin(en anglais "shark's-tooth scrim"), s’utilise souvent pour obtenir des effets de transparence. Un éclairage approprié devant ou dérrière un rideau de fond Gobelin, peut faire apparaître et disparaître des objets ou artistes sur scène. Les tulles, gazes ou filets de scène s’utilisent comme toile de fond, vélum, surface de projection, comme filet de protection pour la fosse d’orchestre, ou pour y accrocher des éléments décoratifs. 2, record 10, French, - tulle%20dents%20de%20requin

Princess lace is one type of tape lace made popular in Belgium during [the 19th century) ... Princess lace hardly merits the label "handmade," but would more correctly be considered as "hand-assembled" from a variety of machine-made elements ... Princess lace employs a combination of characteristic plain and fancy machine-made tapes and its design generally relies upon stylized flowers, scrolls, and medallions worked in imitation of traditional Duchesse or Brussels lace designs. 1, record 12, English, - princess%20lace
