The list of the other cartouche is formed by flower stems and flowers with a five-lobed flower hanging from above. The motifs are largely made in linen with openwork edges and here and there fine cut-outs, which form the veins in the petals. Some parts of motifs, including flower hearts, are made in net stroke. The motifs are connected by a five-hole ground. In the cartouches, a finer and a coarser snow ground was alternately used as ornamental ground. The top and bottom of the strip are finished straight and each fastens to a strip of linen: fragments of bedding. The lace is probably made in the Southern Netherlands, the demolition probably in the Northern Netherlands., anonymous, Northern Netherlands, c. 1740 - c. 1760, geheel, Flanders lace, l , × w , l cm × w cm ×,
