I don't know much about lace in Sri-Lanka, but several years ago my son was there for several weeks.
During one of his strolls into the woods he came upon a small hut and a woman making bobbin lace. She allowed him to take her picture and he asked her if she could sell him a pair of bobbins (for me). Communication was a bit difficult because she couldn't speak English but some how they managed. He was quite surprise to see lace made in such a remote place. He showed her a picture of my lace but said he was a bit embarrassed because hers was of very low quality. At the time I posted a picture on Facebook. If any of you are on Facebook I can post it again.
