Did you know...

15 July 1943
...that we have a beautiful hand-embroidered work of art in our showroom in Bruges? This work was embroidered by hand by Hendrik and Maurice Slabbinck. This work was finished in 1943 and counts as a wonderful protest against the war. This triptych offers a strong ode to our Lady of Peace in its central panel. This panel was one of the many hand-embroidered works that were carried out in our studio during the Second World War. This allowed all male embroiderers to continue working in Bruges and no embroiderer had to go to the German war industry.
