Strip bobbin with trapezoidal cartouche and clover four, anonymous, c. 1700 - c. 1899 Strip of natural -colored bobbin: Mechelse side. The repeating and continuous pattern consists of a succession of a trapezoidal cartouche, elongated leaves and a clover four. The motifs are connected by a fine Maas soil, the Mechelen soil. The motifs are made in linen battle, with thicker and shiny contour threads. Two different decorative grounds, with coarse meshes, are used in the cartouches and in a room between the leaves. The very slightly scalloped underside is finished with picots. The top is straight
