Dear Janice, Although it is not all that close to Zurich (55 minutes by car according to googlemaps) there is a lace museum in St. Gallen, Switzerland that has been on my bucket list for some time. It has pieces of hand made lace that were collected by the Ikle family who produced Schiffli lace. The books of the late 19th and early 20th century have many examples from this collection which had some very famous pieces. Some were sold, but some remain. The collection is not online, but there was a Gros Point symposium held in St. Gallen a few years ago and images from a special display were very exciting. Perhaps there might be the makings of an article for the IOLI Bulletin! Devon
