French-made Calais lace used in haute couture.

Beaded Calais lace is an exceptional fabric—delicate and refined—enhanced by needle-beading done entirely by hand. This artisanal craftsmanship gives the lace pattern a luxurious texture and creates subtle plays of light, resulting in a particularly elegant look.

Chantilly lace is a specific type of Calais lace, generally recognizable by its very fine and delicate pattern—often floral or botanical—with lighter outlines and a slightly airy appearance. It is traditionally made with fine threads and often features a very fine ground.

This grey beaded Chantilly lace is ideal for feminine and formal designs. The delicacy of Calais lace, combined with the meticulous beading work, makes it a fabric particularly well-suited for couture pieces and formal wear.
