About this work

Scarf of natural-colored Brussels applied lace: needle lace - Brussels gauze lace - applied on machine-made tulle. A rectangle is bordered by flat shells, a densely spotted strip and double spirals unrolling towards the center, which are purely circular and drawn with a single line. The field is more widely spotted and shows two bouquets in the ends with various flowers in the center and waving twigs on the outside. Some roses have an applied relief.
