The origins of Milky Star Lace can be traced back to the Qing Dynasty, when royal embroiderers began experimenting with silk threads dyed in soft shades of ivory and silver. Inspired by clear night skies over rural China, they designed patterns that resembled the scattered light of distant stars. The lace’s name—“Milky Star”—reflects both the purity of the silk and the shimmering effect created when light dances across the delicate fabric.
