Needle lace, which has an important place in Anatolian culture, is a delicate decorative art that is made by hand. This art can be done with various materials, but handmade needle laces made of silk thread are especially distinguished by their elegance and aesthetics.

Silk is a natural fiber that is thin and durable. Silk thread is one of the materials used in Anatolian needle lace, and it is known for its elegant texture in addition to its brightness and softness. Due to these features, it adds a unique elegance to the decorations when used in handmade needle lace.

Handmade needle lace production is a handicraft that requires patience and skill. First, small motifs are created by knitting fine silk threads with special needles.

Needle lace masters create both traditional motifs and personal designs. Threads are used in different colours and tones to create a variety of visual effects. The needle lace creating process is carried out on a thin needle and pillow. Through this detailed creation process, each needle lace piece is shaped and assembled by hand one by one.

Silk thread handmade needle laces stand out for their many unique features. First, each needle lace piece is handmade, so it is unique and no two pieces are exactly alike. This allows you to add a unique style and personality to your look. Additionally, the fine and delicate details of needle laces made of silk thread provide an eye-catching look. Needle laces can be used in clothes, covers, bags and accessories. Each piece carries the labour and artistic sense of the artisan.

Silk thread handmade needle lace represents the combination of elegance and aesthetics. These delicate decorations are an important part of Anatolian culture and have been passed down from generation to generation by housewives through handicrafts for centuries. Each needle lace, which is gifted from mothers to daughters as a legacy of lived experiences, is unique not only in its production technique but also in its stories.
