Sewing and embroidery sets, cases made of alloy gold…love tokens given to celebrate an engagement
Why the tools? How can one become acquainted with an art without seeing in material terms how it was practised?…lace pillows, bobbins, needles…how many tiny objects, sometimes of the strangest and most curious shapes, were used! The Arnaldo Caprai Museum Collection includes more than two thousand tools of the textile art.
