Four different separate branches of ecclesiastical flowers (lily; pomegranate; bunch of grapes) fill triangular and shield-shaped fields; which are bordered by a river of wide c-volutes. The triangles are alternately high and narrow and short and thick and display a fine mesh; while the shield-shaped fields are filled with a coarse grid. Along the scalloped edge runs a mountain and valley line again of c-volutes; which are cut over by a fine closed flower garland; which repeats itself at the top of the strip. The c-volutes are filled with grid work and wrapped with a fine flower garland or cut over by a feathered leaf.; anonymous; Southern Netherlands; c. 1750 - c. 1760; linen (material); Brussels bobbin lace; l 130 cm x w 60 cm
