Strip of spool lace with two compositions of c-volutes and daisies, Strip of natural spool of lace: fine Bruges flower arrangements. The repeating pattern consists of two, largely symmetrical compositions of c-volutes and daisies. One composition consists of two c-volutes facing each other along the underside of the strip, which are placed against each other at the bottom. Large increasing lobes are made along the outside of the volutes, the three largest forming a lobed shell. Between the c-volutes are two chalice flowers and a daisy, with a hanging palmetblad above it, topped by three
Strip of spool lace with two compositions of c-volutes and daisies, Strip of natural spool of lace: fine Bruges flower arrangements. The repeating pattern consists of two, largely symmetrical compositions of c-volutes and daisies. One composition consists of two c-volutes facing each other along the underside of the strip, which are placed against each other at the bottom. Large increasing lobes are made along the outside of the volutes, the three largest forming a lobed shell. Between the c-volutes are two chalice flowers and a daisy, with a hanging palmetblad above it, topped by three rosette flowers. The other composition consists of three strongly curved c-volutes under an elongated horizontal c-volute. A row of seven contiguous rosette flowers below forms the other lobed shell. Above the lying c-volute is an asymmetrical arrangement of larger and smaller rosette flowers and daisies. The motifs are connected to each other by a pictured braided soil. They are largely made of loose-worked linen with open-worked edges and cut-outs. The three large lobes that form a scallop are partly made in net stroke. The motifs are largely provided with thin and thicker contour threads. In the openwork flower hearts of the seven contiguous daisies, cubes are made in shape. The top of the strip is finished straight. The scallop edge comes from the pattern and is finished with picots., anonymous, Belgium, c. 1860, cotton (textile), bobbin lace, l 121 cm × w cm ×, cm
