The motifs are largely connected to each other by a decorative ground, a snow ground and partly with a lattice ground, a five-hole ground. The full work is largely made in linen with openwork edges, one (flower) leaf is made in net stroke. A net impact filling is used around the branch with the fan-shaped flower. The scallops along the bottom follow the shape of the pattern and are finished with picots. The top is finished straight., anonymous, Southern Netherlands, c. 1740 - c. 1760, linen (material), bobbin lace, l 8 cm × w 3 cm
