Handkerchief with a border of needle lace with amorets, Handkerchief with a border of natural colored needle lace: Brussels gauze lace. A wide edge with a virtually symmetrical pattern runs around a round batiste middle section. There are sixteen openworked pointed ovals in a circle on an extremely fine, mushroom-covered fond. Along the sides runs a broad, brace-shaped branch, starting from a motif shaped like a French lily, that cuts the circle of the batist. The branches turn into a circular scalloped edge of palmetal flowers. Outside this circle there are large pointed shells in the corners
