About this work

Strip of natural-coloured appliqué lace: needle lace applied on machine tulle. This type of lace is also known under the name: point d'Angleterre. An inner part sprinkled with three rows of small leaves is closed by unequal scallops, which are formed by linked thin twigs with openwork (open) worked flowers and three leaves.
