Buratto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Embroidered Buratto, 16C, Florence

Buratto is an Italian needle lace made by darning on a net. It is quite similar in appearance to but with one important distinction—it is darned onto a woven net, rather than the knotted net used for filet. Buratto tends to also be heavier in appearance due to the woven nature of the netting used[1]
