Strip bobbin lace with symmetrical composition with butterfly-shaped motif in center and surrounded by occhiolini loops, Strip of natural-colored bobbin lace, Eastern European lace. The repeating pattern consists of a more or less symmetrical composition in which the contours of the motifs are made with winding ribbons, which vary minimally in width. The composition consists in the center of a butterfly-shaped motif with a kind of canopy above it on which the same curling motifs hang down on both sides. The motifs are connected to each other by a loop pattern like with occhiolini. The ribbons are partly made in net stroke and largely in linen stroke with openwork edges. The top of the strip is finished straight. A continuous and winding ribbon provides a scalloped edge along the bottom of the strip., anonymous, Oost-Europa, c. 1880 - c. 1899, linen (material), East European lace, l 148 cm × w 15 cm ×, 26 cm
