Strip of bobbin lace with pearl necklace in composite tendril, Natural Brussels-colored bobbin lace. The pattern consists of a wavy branch, which is composed of all kinds of leaves, a heart-shaped flower, a bunch of oval flowers, a pearl necklace and at the end a carnation from which four-leaf clover springs. The branch partly cuts the pattern along the underside of the strip, which consists of, among other things, a branch of forget-me-nots, an oval-shaped cartouche and concatenated leaves and rosette flowers. The motifs are connected to each other by a fine mesh soil, a drizzle soil. The full work is largely made in linen with openwork edges and some cut-outs. Some flower hearts and petals and the like are made in net stroke. Most motifs are provided with cloned relief contours. In the center of the oval cartouche, a decorative ground was used as ornamental ground and pigtails braided between the flowers. The upper side is finished with a separately banded strap, to which are pieces of a hexagonal mesh ground attached. The irregular scalloped bottom comes from the border pattern and is finished with picots., anonymous, Brussels, c. 1740 - c. 1760, linen (material), Brussels bobbin lace, l 29 cm × w 6 cm
