Slip of a jabot of needle lace

Slip of a jabot of natural-colored needle lace: flat Venetian lace. On either side of a central motif of flower vases, curls and flowers is a symmetrical design of vases with flowers in a diamond shape of C-curls surrounded by irregular flower branches. The motifs are worked in festoon stitch, with cut-outs creating simple patterns in various flowers and leaves. The motifs are connected by a hexagonal picoted spile ground. The slips are finished on three sides with a straight edge with picoted arches. One long side is finished with a drawn thread edge.
