Machine-made collar with nine circular flowers between ten roses in inverted drops, Machine-made collar: etching lace, imitation of needle lace. The broad collar with nine shells forms two-thirds of a circle. Along a narrow band on the inside of the circle are ten drops - the first and the last cut in half - with their pointed ends pointing radially outwards. There are nine circular flowers between the points, on which three leaves hang between four c-volutes. With their appendages, these flowers form the large shell edge. The contours of the drops are made with concatenated thick balls. The contours of the large circular flower hearts are made of six overlapping, thick cordons that appear to have a foundation. The other contours around the motifs also seem to be founded. The motifs are connected by bars, with picots or wheel picots. Various decorative grounds were used in the motifs., anonymous, Switzerland, c. 1910, cotton (textile), h 53, × w 65, l 135 cm × w 23 cm
