Buratto is an Italian needle lace made by darning on a net. It is quite similar in appearance to filet lace but with one important distinction—it is darned onto a woven net, rather than the knotted net used for filet. Buratto tends to also be heavier in appearance due to the woven nature of the netting used{{cite book|title= Identification of Lace|ISBN=0-85263-484-6|author=Pat Earnshaw |publisher=Shire Publications}}
