Strip of spool lace with scattered twigs and curved double twigs, Strip of natural Brussels spool lace. The pattern consists of sprinkled flowers on stems, stars and branches with berries. Along the underside there is a border with several concatenated ovals, from which sprout double branches that bend left from the center of the strip to the left and bend right from the center to the right. The motifs are connected to each other by a fine mesh soil, a drizzle soil. The motifs are made in linen with open-worked edges and are largely provided with clotted relief contours. In the flower hearts of the larger scattered flowers, a block is made in form. Ornamental soils with coarser meshes than the dry soil have been used in the little ovals along the underside. The top is finished straight. The faintly scalloped bottom is finished with picots., anonymous, Brussels, c. 1775 - c. 1795, linen (material), Brussels bobbin lace, l 66 cm × w 4.5 cm
