Once
you are in Malta, the best purchases are some of the typical
crafts of the country, like weaves, ceramics, wrists,
objects in gold and silver filigrees or hand-made laces.
These ones have a tradition that goes back to the fifteenth
century, when they were used to embellish the ceremonial
dresses and suits. The most known laces are the ones from
the island of Gozo, based in the lacing style of Genova.
The precious metal filigree objects also have a strong
tradition in the country, and its art usually goes from
father to son.
