About this work

On a coarse mesh ground (square mesh) stands a running pattern. In an open part stand two rows of rosebuds between mosses. In a more filled part stands above the feathered leaves that form the semi-circular scallops a branch originating from there with an anemone, a double leaf and a bud. The strip consists of four parts sewn together and is in 1966 sewn to a strip with a similar, but not identical pattern. Valenciennes lace.
