Strip of bobbin lace with deep wave line

Strip of black bobbin lace: Cluny lace. The repeating and symmetrical pattern consists of a deep wave line. In each wave valley stands a rosette with above it two smaller rosettes and a four-pointed star in between. Each wave peak encloses a compound, standing leaf, with on both sides five leaves. Under the leaf stands a framed four-pointed star. The shell edge along the underside of the strip is formed by three radiating lobes under each wave valley. In each of these lobes hangs a compound leaf downwards. The lobes are finished with bows made with picoted braids. The wave lines and frames are made in net stitch and linen stitch, the rosette leaves, compound leaves and stars in form stitch. They are connected by a braid ground, which forms a coarse square net on the top side of the strip. The top side of the strip is finished straight.
