The pattern on the bottom consists of a double, slightly wavy branch with heart-shaped leaves on either side. These tendrils are interrupted by the diagonal lines. Even finer mesh between the tendrils. Full work with minimal cut-outs in all leaves. Scallop edge on the underside by a succession of small heart-shaped and oval leaves, partly arising from the tendrils pattern. The top is trimmed with a bobbin lace edge., anonymous, Southern Netherlands, c. 1600 - c. 1799, linen (material), Argentan lace, h 328 cm × w 6.8 cm ×, 22.5 cm
