Baptismal cushion made of tulle embroidery, Baptismal cushion made of natural-colored lace embroidery: tulle embroidery on machine tulle. Along the edges drumming work on machine tulle and in the corners appliqués are attached to the tulle, above the lining of cream-colored silk satin. Rectangular model, padded. The applications concern three flower branches per corner with two rosette flowers and two bell flowers on each branch. A v-shaped frame has been created around the flower branches with four feathered leaves. The appliqués are made by embroidering flowers on a piece of batist with festoon stitches and cordon stitches. Perhaps a whole piece of batist is always attached to the tulle and only then are parts of the batist cut away, following the shape of the embroidered motifs. The strip along the edge is fastened with few fine pleats, and is tucked more strongly in the corners., anonymous, Netherlands, c. 1840 - c. 1849, silk, embroidering, l 65 cm × w 57 cm w 11 cm
