Lace Relations follows journalist Ireti Yusuf, daughter of Lagos' lace-market founder, and retired Austrian trader Grete Bösch as they uncover centuries-old textile ties between Nigeria and Austria. From slave-trade linen and "white gold" cotton to lace and damask, their journey exposes colonial violence, hidden trade, and the resilience of fabrics as vessels of memory and meaning.
