Strip of bobbin lace with sun in the flower heart and oval-shaped spaces, Strip of natural-colored bobbin lace: old Flemish bobbin lace with braided soil. The repeating pattern consists of a faintly lobed oval flower with a sun as a flower heart. The flower has a strongly curved stem with an oval leaf at the end. Several whimsical leaves that are not clearly defined fill the rest of the pattern until the next flower. The oval-shaped open spaces with different dimensions are striking, but all quite large. The motifs are made in linen with openwork edges. Different ornamental soils have been applied in and between the leaves. The rays of the sun are made in shape. The bottom and top are straight finished, with picots on one side., anonymous, Vlaanderen, c. 1650 - c. 1699, linen (material), Flemish lace with plaited ground, l 56 cm × w 4.5 cm ×, 11.3 cm
