Strip of mixed lace full of large flowers, Strip of natural-colored mixed lace: bobbin lace with needle lace additions and with needle lace, a gauze lace. This type of lace is also known as: point d'Angleterre. The repeating pattern consists of large flowers that are linked together over the full width of the strip. Striking are the thick cordons of widely funded wire bundles, which are used in particular around the flower hearts. Other finer relief contours around the designs are made with a thread that is thicker than the threads used for the designs. The top is trimmed with a bobbin lace
