"The Jubilee of the Kantsalet"
2000-03-18 until 2000-08-20
Rijksmuseum
Amsterdam, , NL Netherlands

The Rijksmuseum's lace collection is one of the largest in the Netherlands. The museum has operated an active acquisition policy since 1920, and now has over 2400 items. The strength of the collection derives largely from important loans and gifts. Thus in 1966 the museum received a long-term loan from the Royal Collections which comprised a great deal of lace belonging to Queens Sophie, Emma and Wilhelmina.

One of the principal donors was and is 'Het Kantsalet', a society founded in 1925. The exhibition in 2000 will mark the 75th anniversary of this generous institution and present 75 of the finest examples from this remarkable collection.
