About this work

Cuff of natural-colored bobbin lace, duchess lace. The cuff is formed as a circular segment. A very fine symmetrical design stands on a ground of spindles. A large goblet flower and a star-shaped five-petal flower alternate with a large fan-shaped flower, which is built up from a goblet with a half-circle as heart and three radiating lobes. Small scattered goods of goblets, rosettes and paillettes serve as filling. Almost tight outer edges, consisting of fine flowers.
