Hat bobbin from bobbin lace with heart-shaped center, Hat bobbin from natural-colored Brussels bobbin lace. The symmetrical, rich pattern consists of a heart-shaped center, formed by a triangular vase with a bulb base and two curling, feathered leaves. A drop-shaped flower rises right from the heart between flowers and from a palmetblad. Left and right, diagonally below the heart, springs from a thick volute, an outward-facing carnation and rosette flower. Various flowers, including many rosette flowers and leaves further fill the pattern. There is not really a ground, the motifs are connected
