Strip of bobbin lace with feathered leaves in large arcs from five-lobed center, Natural strip of bobbin lace: Binche lace. The repeating pattern consists of feathered leaves, which move with large arches over the strip from a five-lobed center. Between the leaves the pattern is partly filled with oblique stripes and on the other side of the center partly with diamonds. The motifs stand against each other and partially overlap. Where they do not touch each other, they are connected by a nice ornamental ground, a snow ground. The motifs are made in linen strokes with cut-outs and openwork edges and in net strokes. The top of the strip is finished straight, but frayed by damage. The bottom is finished straight and provided with picots., anonymous, Binche, c. 1715 - c. 1725, linen (material), snowflake filling, l 52 cm × w 7 cm ×, 13.4 cm
