Russian Lace Patterns - Anna Korableva & Bridget M Cook

Publisher : Batsford Ltd (5 July 1996)
ISBN-10 : 0713467924
ISBN-13 : 978-0713467925
Russian Lace Patterns by Anna Korableva & Bridget M Cook
This one of the holy grails of lace books and is extremely difficult to find at a reasonable price.

It is a follow on book to Bridget Cook's Russian Lace Making.

This book contains a number of outstanding pictorial pieces designed by Ann Korableva including her rocking horse along with other patterns such as the lacemakers.

​The four pieces, shown on the front cover, are in the book.
Picture
What works well?
  • The black and white photos are often far bigger than the actual lace patterns so these compliment the prickings adding visual information to the patterns.
Anything that we need to take into consideration?​
  • This is a book of patterns and a knowledge of Russian and / or tape lace is assumed.
  • This book is out of print.  It is very rare and commands exceptionally high prices when available second hand

Hello Liz, I am not sure what to think of this, but it looks like the book is now available "new" as print on demand, hardback, see here:

It does look like a legitimate source, though I do wonder! What do you think?

    I'm the lace bee and these are my books

    With currently over 300 books and about the same number of individual patterns, I have an enviable library.  So here are some of my books.

    ​You can see all of the titles by opening up the archives or by clicking on the categories which I've used to group by authors, language and lace types

    I am very grateful to the lace gumnuts of Australia for permission to quote and link their reviews to this site.
