Mixed lace collar with a faint V-shaped model, Natural ribbon lace collar (mixed lace): Luxury owl lace, with a woven ribbon and needle lace fillings. Slightly v-shaped model, with rectangular ends and a widened triangular center. The symmetrical pattern consists of motifs whose contours are formed by a narrow woven ribbon. In the middle is the largest flower with a four-lobed center, flanked by volutes under which hangs a triangular point. In addition to this central palm flower on each side an openwork oval flower, made with two sickles placed next to each other, oval leaves and three times a three-lobed flower. The tri-lobed flowers and the central flower have a raised (relief) and fringed circular flower heart. Within the contours with which the motifs are formed, decorative grounds are used (needle lace) with coarser yarn than used for making the ribbon. The motifs are connected by a bar ground (needle side). The uneven shell edge comes from the pattern and is finished around with a little bow edge, made with the same coarse yarn as the needle lace fillings., anonymous, Belgium, c. 1890 - c. 1910, cotton (textile), Luxeuil lace, l 39 cm × w 12 cm w 10 cm
