We note different types of lace being worn by German boys. This includes both proper lace and eyelet lace. Proper lace could be very expensive. This lace in America was often called Belgian lace because it was imported from Belgium. There was a very important lace industry in Belgium. It was the same expensive lace women wore on their dresses. I do not know if Germany had a lace indstry or if it was imported from Belgium nd other countries. Eyelet lace was a less expensive altrnaive. Here holes were cut out of fabric and often embridered. I am not sure what the German term for this was.
