Idrija Lace School (Čipkarska šola Idrija)

Idrija (day trip from Ljubljana)

What Idrija Lace School (Čipkarska šola Idrija) is known for

Founded in 1876, the Idrija Lace School keeps the bobbin-lace tradition of this mining town alive, training around 500 students a year and selling framed lace pieces through its own shop. The 'Quick Silver' line borrows patterns from Idrija's mercury-mining history, translating them into lace panels priced for serious collectors.
