Cuff of mixed lace with a shallow V-shaped design

Cuff of natural-colored ribbon lace (mixed lace): Luxeuil lace, with a woven ribbon and needle lace fillings. Faint V-shaped model, with rectangular ends and a widened triangular centre. The symmetrical pattern consists of motifs whose contours are formed by a narrow woven ribbon. In the centre stands the largest flower with a three-lobed centre, flanked by volutes under which hangs a triangular point, and crowned by a small circle from which three leaves originate. Next to this central palmette flower on each side an openwork oval flower, made with two sickles placed against each other, two oval leaves and in each upper corner a three-lobed flower. The three-lobed flowers and the central flower have a raised (relief) and festooned circular flower centre. Within the contours forming the motifs, ornamental grounds are applied (needle lace) with coarser thread than used for the ribbon. The motifs are connected by a bar ground (needle lace).
