Importance in Community Life
Activities and Functions
Pumping is one of the lace-making techniques. Such lace towels, handkerchiefs, scarves, miscellaneous clothing details. Work with several dozens of dozens and even hundreds of pairs of “nipple”, needle or tamboradata is an auxiliary tool.
“Pipelets” are wood-shaped, approximately 15 cm long cobs, which have a spool on one end to clean the thread. Intersections and twisted threads are cross-crossed and twisted as they are crossed.
The thread-twisting and cross-contamination result in weaving and, when sorted in different variations, the top lace. The intersection of threads is pinned by rivets that help to create a tight and accurate form of lace.
The drawings shall be attached to the base - a special knife cushion or table - and then removed with the finished product. “(D. Priberga“ ancient lace in Latvia ”, p. 107)
“In Latvia, the billing technology allows compositions with ornamental plant motives, spoken ribbons or laconic geometric ornaments.” (D. Priberga “lace heritage in Latvia”, p. 289)
Inheritance and Transmission
THE artistic leader Dagmar Prierga of the artistic leader, Dagmar Prierga, who studied lace heritage in Latvia, also paid particular attention to the skill of the fucking lace.
D. Priberga is almost 30 years old at THE barbella.
Maintaining the scripting skills and ensuring the inheritance process is one of THE BASIC tasks of the 'barbele'. In the course of the studio, ten students are held every week, who have been studying for more than 30 years.
History
The most ancient samples of fucked lace in Latvia have been preserved in the Duchy of Kurzeme and in the tombs of Catholic Church, dated 17 th and 18 th century.
Museum specialists have cleaned and preserved the lace and are in good condition. There is no news in the sources that in the 17 th-18 th century there are lace trees in Latvia, apparently the Dukes have imported them from abroad.
The place of manufacture is not yet cleared.
In Latvia, the 18 th and 19 th centuries can be considered as fanned lace craftsmen, like other textile works. In the 18 th century, according to European models, clothing with fanned lace laces was mainly the people of Latvia's tournament. The Western European School dominated the baronet suits.
Interestingly, it was not only fine and luxurious lace, but also coarse pine, ribbons and twine, baskets, bags, horses and other items used in the household. The pumping elements also appeared in metal, leather and other articles.
The creation and development of Latvian local lace traditions is evidenced by ethnographic textiles.
The most crawling lace from the selection of the pickled lace objects are found in: Latgale – countryside in the woven, shirts and aprons, Vidzeme and Zemgale – wife hats, Kurzeme – in nostrils, snats and towel ends, used for rotation of brunches, sheets and other household textiles.
Almost all of the peoples or linen towels in the 20 th-21 st century are the imitation of ethnographic lace or variations in the 19 th century.
This shows that the preservation and development of local lace positions is facilitated by the living traditions of the people – song festivals, wedding, funeral, Christianity and other events.

At each time, the course programme was attended by 15 participants.
Continuity/Development
Dagmar Prīberga, head of studio “Barbele”, will conduct a study on the current situation in Latvia (2019-2020).
Various activities are planned for the protection and development of the element.
1. Dagmar Prürga, head of THE “barbele”, will develop a common training methodology for the preservation and promotion of the element of the informal education system by 2021. The training programme will include the theme “specificities of the traditional skills of Latvian regions (common and different)” and “an element in the context of world experience”.
2. THE “rhythm” of KTMC will propose to update the establishment of a financial support system at municipal level, which would support the involvement of respected TDM masters in the process of transferring the element.
The planned activities will be carried out by self-financing, but projects will be prepared as far as possible to attract additional funding.
3. Develop the “Knipelet lace masters” programme of cultural heritage textiles and technology for stakeholders in the context of lifelong learning. (courses are managed by the city of Jurmala from September 2021 and are currently continuing until May 2022).
