Strip of needle lace with volutes and peonies, Strip of natural colored needle lace: Brussels' gauze lace. The repeating pattern consists of slanted flower sprays and asymmetrical c-volutes on a fine soil with single twisted meshes: a mesh lace that is covered with pouches. A flower branch with a few large flowers alternates with a flower branch with many small roses and berries. Along the underside, the pattern under each branch with the large flowers consists of an elongated horizontal c-volute, with at the bottom a decorative frame of connected circles with different rosettes in decorative stitches. Completely made with festoon stitches with nuances where the denser filling is made with fabric stitches (a feston stitch variant). Embossed contours of widely bundled wire bundles (cordonnets). Many corrugated rings decorate the lace. The scallop edge is formed by concatenated flowers under each lying c-volute and smaller tilted c-volutes between them, under which one large peony hangs. The top edge is trimmed with a banded band., anonymous, Belgium, c. 1850 - c. 1899, linen (material), Brussels point de gaze, l 90 cm × w 15 cm ×, 13 cm
