Lace fragment, needle lace Alençon lace, A flower branch parallel to the edge. Above the branch, in the projection, circles made of small circles. Below the branch, on the edge, a row of small circles, the edge corresponding to the circles—small semicircular serrations. 18th century, France, lace, width 6.5 cm, length 32 cm, A horizontal strip of delicate lace in shades of off-white and cream lies against a flat gray background, showing a repeating floral and geometric pattern with a scalloped top edge and a straighter bottom edge; the lace fabric has a fine hexagonal mesh with a few raised knot-like floral motifs and looping vine-like designs, and there are small irregular frayed threads along the lower edge.
