Strip of bobbin lace with bend and symmetrical pattern with hanging S-shaped bouquet with tulips and peony, Natural strip of bobbin lace, Binche lace. The strip makes a kink midway and broadens slightly at this point, where an almost invisible seam runs in the middle. The repeating pattern consists of a hanging S-shaped bouquet including a peony and smaller tulips and rosette flowers. The pattern with the bouquet flows into a pattern with acanthus leaves and a decorative band that runs downwards and then moves upwards again with two bows around the bouquet. Because the pattern is mirrored at the seam, the decorative band forms around the widened center piece into a kind of U-shaped cartouche. The motifs are connected to each other by a mesh ground, the borehole grate, and largely by ornamental grounds, including snow flakes and net stroke fillings with a pattern of hearts. The motifs are made in linen with openwork edges, cut-outs and thicker contour threads. The top is finished with a separately made straight strap. The underside is very bland. The strip is made possible for on a triangular fichu., anonymous, Binche, c. 1720 - c. 1749, linen (material), Binche lace, l 75 cm × w 5 cm × w 10.7 cm ×, 13 cm
