Description
The author, continuing her research in the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s, explores the life of Emma Kočevar, one of the instructors at the women’s workshops active in Wagna, the refugee camp for people displaced from the Isonzo and Istria regions during the First World War.
Emma, known as Malner—though this name could be confused with that of her sister Elsi—played a significant role in Gorizia lace-making, in the structure of the school, and in the creation of the “Gorizia stitch” and the “three-pair Flanders” lace.
