WELCOME TO PERLA GALLERY, IN BURANO, the wonderful island of lace
Since the 15th century, original Burano lace has been made by hand with a needle and fine cotton thread. The lace has its main characteristic in the need to employ seven lace makers to create one piece; every woman is specialized in one of the several complicated processes necessary for making the lace.
Burano’s singularity strikes you immediately: its brightly colored houses, typical restaurants, and the calm confusion of tourists as they mill through the stores, workshops, and stands of lace–the island’s main source of income. Here, the Bon family runs their store “La Perla” with tireless dedication. The Bons work with trusted collaborators and have organized a special sales strategy while maintaining the local charm.
The recent opening of La Perla Gallery has provided the business with more space for its high-quality creations, confirms the success of the Bon family’s business philosophy, one that places enormous pride in their island of Burano.
