Strip of bobbin lace with curved branches and pomegranates, Strip of natural-colored Brussels bobbin lace. The pattern consists of curved branches with leaves, flowers and / or berries. The branches randomly bend one way or the other and are alternated by branches with grant apples and other larger flowers. The bottom edge consists of a succession of small motifs that form different cartouches. The motifs are connected to each other by a fine mesh soil, a drizzle soil. The motifs are made in linen with open-worked edges and are largely provided with clotted relief contours. As ornamental ground, among other things, picotized braided soils and a snowy soil were used. The top is finished with a straight edge on which a strip of tulle is sewn. The very bland and irregular scalloped bottom comes from the border pattern and is finished with picots., anonymous, Brussels, c. 1760 - c. 1770, linen (material), Brussels bobbin lace, l 93 cm × w 6.5 cm
