Lace in the contemporary countryside

Europe • Cyprus

At the end of the trip, we look at the work of lace makers in the village of Lefkara.

“Lefkara is where the Cypriot folk needlecraft art is born - the famous “lefkaritiko” - which the reputation of has gone beyond the frontiers of Cyprus and has become known in most of the European countries but not only there.”

We see a modern village whose prosperity comes from the hard work of local women. Unfortunately, it is said that this is the last generation that wants to do such work!
