Strip of spool lace with stars and wheels, Natural spool of lace strip. The repeating pattern alternates between a wheel and an eight-pointed star. The outline of the motifs consists of a band made in form. 'Spokes' are made with braids within the perimeter. A straight tire runs above the wheels. Under the wheels and stars runs a band that forms semicircular scallops, with five lobes formed by arcs on them. Tires and bows are both made in shape. The motifs are connected to each other by a braid ground, which forms coarse diamond-shaped meshes, like a Valenciennes ground. The top of the strip is finished straight with a zigzag braid. The bows on the scallops are finished with a few picots., anonymous, Volvic, c. 1800 - c. 1824, cotton (textile), bobbin lace, l 26 cm × w 6 cm ×, 7 cm
