Lace fragment, bobbin lace with rosette ornaments framed by a tendril motif at top and bottom; mesh background similar to a drochel; motif edges contoured and straight. 18th–19th century, Flanders. Lace, width 8 cm, length 97.5 cm., A horizontal strip of lace with a repeating geometric floral pattern spans the width of the image, placed against a smooth background. The lace appears off-white to cream with small areas of darker discoloration, and the background shows shades of gray ranging from medium to darker gray. The lace has an open, net-like texture with solid embroidered motifs forming diamond and cross shapes, and the lower edge is slightly irregular with tiny loose threads. The overall scene shows the contrast between the delicate light-colored lace and the uniform gray backdrop.
