About this work
Shawl of natural-colored appliqué lace, bobbin lace applied on machine-made tulle. Triangular model with a densely scattered pattern of low swaying stems, which do not cross each other anywhere. They end in volutes and sometimes in openwork border flowers. In the point stand a large poppy, a pineapple-shaped fruit and rocailles, all with mesh pattern. Furthermore various smaller flowers and spiky leaves.
