Altar cloth of linen damask with a border of bobbin lace with very open vine with C-shaped splits and knobs

Altar cloth of linen damask with a pattern of four-leaf clovers. Rectangular model. A strip of bobbin lace, old Flemish lace, is sewn on one side. The repeating and continuous pattern consists of a very sparse vine with very many C-shaped branches and with small oval buds or berries at the ends. The vine is made in a lattice ground, a five-hole ground. The very sparingly applied solid work is made in linen stitch, where the worked-out edges are approximately as wide as the solid work. The top side of the strip is finished straight and sewn to the selvedge of the damask. The bottom side is finished straight with picots. The short sides are finished with a hem. A hem runs around the damask, except for the selvedge.
