Strip of bobbin lace with hanging pear-shaped flower and stripe and diamond pattern, Strip of natural-colored bobbin lace, Binche lace. The repeating pattern consists of a pear-shaped flower slanting downwards, with a lobed edge around the convex part. The pointed leaf diagonally beneath it points the other way and also has a lobed edge, along which a ribbon with a curled end slides down at the top. From the ribbon to the next pear-shaped flower, the pattern is filled with slanting stripes and diamonds. The stripes and diamonds are separated by a whimsical leaf, which slanted downwards from the top of the pattern. The motifs stand against each other and partially overlap. Where they do not touch each other, they are connected to each other by a fine ornamental soil, a snowflakes soil, which is also used as ornamental soil in the flower. The motifs are made in linen and mesh with openwork edges and with loose snowflakes. The top of the strip is finished with a separately clotted strap. The bottom is more or less straight., anonymous, Binche, c. 1720 - c. 1740, linen (material), Binche lace, l 65 cm × w 6.2 cm ×, 13 cm
