Strip of bobbin lace with pearl necklace in composite tendril, Natural Brussels-colored bobbin lace. The pattern consists of a wavy branch, which is composed of all kinds of leaves, a pearl necklace and flower clusters. The branch with two larger flowers and leaves partly overlaps the pattern along the underside of the strip, which among other things consists of concatenated leaves and rosette flowers. The motifs are connected to each other by a fine mesh soil, a drizzle soil. The full work is largely made in linen with openwork edges and partly in net stroke. Most motifs are provided

The pattern consists of a wavy branch, which is composed of all kinds of leaves, a pearl necklace and flower clusters. The branch with two larger flowers and leaves partly overlaps the pattern along the underside of the strip, which among other things consists of concatenated leaves and rosette flowers. The motifs are connected to each other by a fine mesh soil, a drizzle soil. The full work is largely made in linen with openwork edges and partly in net stroke. Most motifs are provided with cloned relief contours. As ornamental ground, there are used, among other things, spliced braids between the flowers. The upper side is finished with a separately banded strap, to which are pieces of a hexagonal mesh ground attached.
