Strip of faint blue bobbin lace with ovals forming deep pointed scallops, Strip of natural-colored bobbin lace: blonde. The color tends to be blue. The repeating pattern consists of an oval with one pointed point that hangs down and forms a deep shell. The successive shells are connected to each other by an openwork circle, in which an x-shaped motif is made in form stroke. The ovals are formed by a decorative ground, a rose ground, surrounded by a wide openwork of contour threads, between which there are small blocks that are made in shaping. An additional decorative band runs around
