Madras, a woven lace, is named after the city in India where the Victorians set up lace making factories in the mid 19th century. the weaving process for Madras lace is slow, taking a full day to produce twelve yards. The cotton is woven onto a net that is so sheer it resembles silk. This is the very finest lace made today. The result is a truly magnificent fabric with a rich overlay of pattern.
Although all the Madras fabrics are as sheer as silk, the solid weave of the lace offers considerable privacy.
An elegant and normally very costly fabric, Madras is currently on display in the White House in a number of room settings
