霍尼顿花边

 霍尼顿花边

Paul King

几千年来,英国的历史一直停留在英格兰富饶的山谷和浅水沼泽之下。 在这个广袤而迷人的国家中,各个时代的社区都有其存在的意义。 坐落在德文郡的古朴小镇霍尼顿,离英格兰的南海岸不远。 霍尼顿在英国历史上留下了痕迹,它创造了一些最美丽的维多利亚时代带来的流行材料。

如诗如画的风景和令人惊叹的植物设计为霍尼顿花边制作者提供了完美的环境。 霍尼顿花边的主要特点之一是受德文郡乡村影响的树枝贴花。 霍尼顿风格的历史可以追溯到十六世纪。 根据N.Hudson Moore撰写的《花边书》,梭子花边被引入到最早提到这种花边是在1620年的一本题为 "德文郡概览 "的小册子中,其中提到 "骨质花边很受欢迎,在Honiton和Bradnich制作"。

虽然霍尼顿花边在十八世纪和十九世纪初就已经很成熟了,但它真正受欢迎是在维多利亚时代。 这一时期对浪漫和美丽的吸引力是公认的,但也有对不完美的兴趣。 在Elaine Freedgood撰写的题为 "精细的手指 "的文件中,Freedgood提到了手工制品是如何受到追捧的。之后。"在19世纪,手工制作的物品因一种新奇的美德而为人所知并受到重视:不规则性(......)是产生 "真正的 "艺术物品的 "真正的美 "的原因。 维多利亚时代的英国对独特和真实的东西很着迷,这在霍尼顿的手工艺中显然可以找到。

霍尼顿花边流行的真正高潮是它的皇家影响。 维多利亚女王的婚纱据说花了三个多月和四百名工人来制作。 弗里德古德说,当维多利亚女王穿着一件深深镶有霍尼顿花边的礼服与阿尔伯特王子结婚时,花边被重新激活了。

维多利亚的影响并不局限于她的婚纱;她在多个场合穿着蕾丝的出现带来了很多人气。 在Geoff Spenceley写的一篇文章中,题为 "蕾丝协会:保护维多利亚晚期和爱德华时期英格兰手工蕾丝生产的慈善运动",300名工人聚集在Honiton,庆祝女王的生日庆典和构建了一个特殊的浮雕,以纪念这一时刻。

Spenceley还提到,"众所周知,在宣布Honiton花边被穿进客厅后,很快就有了订单"。 维多利亚女王并不是唯一一个推广这种美丽织物的皇室成员:亚历山德拉女王也对这个小城的花边制作能力感兴趣,并努力推广英国的手工制品。 据Spenceley说,"爱德华七世的加冕仪式已经亚历山德拉女王要求所有女士在加冕礼上穿戴英国制造的商品,这带来了许多有价值的订单"。 皇室参与购买和穿戴来自霍尼顿的手工花边,同样有助于其在英国社会的普及和经济。

对手工花边的推崇一直持续到19世纪末,后来花边逐渐减少。 机器制造的商品成为未来的趋势,并迅速影响到小企业,如在霍尼顿发现的那些。 不久之后,手工花边因花边协会的成立而有了新的普及机会,其任务是保护Spenceley提到了花边协会是如何恢复对过去房屋工人的怀旧和同情之情的;"协会主要依靠自愿努力,并在一定程度上依靠慈善基金而存在。 当地的经验似乎使许多组织者发自内心地希望帮助贫穷的枕头花边制造商摆脱困境"。 一直到20世纪初根据斯宾塞利的说法,手工制作和机器制作之间的差异非常明显,"在乡间小屋里以艺术方式生产的织物,对美和形式的奉献,与大规模生产的织物之间存在着整个世界的差异"。

霍尼顿花边的例子

维多利亚时代具有显著的特点,它努力欣赏手工制作的瑕疵中的浪漫和美丽。 霍尼顿手工艺的遗留物是通过德文郡乡村的田野、使其受到欢迎的皇家人物的赞助以及保存其遗产和在英国文化中的历史重要性的人们发现。
