Strip of bobbin lace with two lions and the letters W and V, Strip of natural-colored bobbin lace, Lille lace. The repetitive and symmetrical pattern consists of two lions as coat of arms holders of a shield with a 'V' on it, from which a tree springs.

The motifs are connected to each other by a fine mesh soil, a tulip soil, with a spreading pattern of pulps made in form. The motifs are made in linen and / or with decorative ground
