Koniakow

Koniaków is best known in Poland for its handmade crochet lace, a local craft recognised far beyond this highland settlement. The village lies in the Silesian Beskids, close to Poland’s borders with the Czech Republic and Slovakia, amid the ridges and meadows of the Beskid Śląski range. Made with a fine hook in elaborate circular patterns, Koniaków lace is associated with both regional dress and decorative textiles. The Koniaków Lace Museum preserves and presents this continuing tradition. Together with Istebna and Jaworzynka, the village forms the culturally distinct Beskid Trójwiejski area.
