Spool lace strip or cuff with sickle-shaped leaf, Natural spool lace strip: Lille lace. The strip is slightly curved, because it is provided with a few pleats at the ends and it is cut diagonally on both short sides and finished with a narrow edge of tulle. It may have been used as a cuff. Underneath a narrow border with three rows of sprinkled pouches, the repeating pattern consists of a sickle-shaped leaf that curves around a configuration of three cut-away circles with whimsical edges. A smaller openwork oval hangs on the circles and a small bunch of berries hangs on the leaf. Along the underside of the strip a border of openwork motifs runs, whereby the freakish edge, which runs along the top like a kind of crown, touches the edge of the next one. The motifs are connected to each other by a fine grid, a lawn. The motifs are made in linen with mostly large cut-outs and thicker and contour threads. Ornamental soils have been applied to the circles, berries and motifs along the underside. The pouches are made in shape. The top and bottom are straight finished, with the bottom provided with picots., anonymous, Lille, c. 1800 - c. 1849, linen (material), Lille lace, l 35 cm × w 8 cm ×, 7.5 cm
