Chantilly lace is a black silk point ground lace. It became popular in the 19th century and was used extensively on fashions and accessories. Motifs in Chantilly are most often worked in half stitch. Sometimes other decorative stitches are used in the lace. Chantilly is made with untwisted unboiled black silk threads; and for the coarse pairs, untwisted boiled black silk thread is used.

This video provides instruction in the techniques needed to make three edgings in Chantilly lace. A Chantilly bookmark pattern is included as extra practice in applying the techniques presented. One repeat of each edging pattern is worked on camera with pin-by-pin instruction. By viewing this tape from start to finish before beginning to make the lace, one will gain a good understanding of how Chantilly is made.
