JOURNAL DES OUVRAGES DE DAMES - N. 4/1930 - frammenti
A 1930 Italian needlework periodical, the Journal des Ouvrages de Dames, issue 4, held in the Mincuzzi Nicoletti collection and tagged with embroidery and François Tedesco. Its plates show embroidery and lace patterns: a stylised berry-and-leaf panel, flowers worked in soutache-like braid, a crocheted floral border, and diagrams of stitches and braid-work laid over a tracing. A designer could draw on the flat, outlined motifs, the mirrored symmetry of the panels, and the blocky grid-and-flower lace edging for textile or pattern work.
