Engageante of needle lace with flower flowers and tulips, Engageante of natural colored needle lace: flat Venetian net base lace. Elongated rectangular model with a broadened center piece and a scalloped edge along the bottom. The symmetrical pattern in the middle consists of three calyxes, from which tendrils wave to either side, covering the entire width of the person involved, with swaying composite leaves, daisy flowers and large tulips. The motifs are made with unscrewed festival stitches, between which countless fine cut-outs have been made. A slightly thicker, but equally fine, contour thread has been used to accentuate pattern parts. The motifs are connected by a nice mesh ground with transverse revolutions. Very fine ornamental grounds have been applied in and around most flowers and leaves in many variants, including ornamental grounds with diamonds, 'partridge eyes', blocks and zigzag lines. A bar of ground decorated with picots was used as ornamental ground in a few leaves. The scallop edge is finished with picots. The top is straight and finished with a banded strap., anonymous, Brussels, c. 1710 - c. 1730, linen (material), grounded Ventian point, l 75 cm × w cm
