Bobbin Lace (Rose Lace) Edging of Bell Points

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of white bobbin lace, specifically an edging of bell points. The lace is made up of intricate patterns and shapes, including circles, ovals, and teardrops. The lace has a repeating design of three rounded points, resembling bells, with a floral and geometric pattern above them. The points are adorned with long, thin, hanging loops that form a fringe-like effect. The top edge of the lace is straight and features a simpler pattern compared to the rest of the lace. The background of the image is solid black, which provides high contrast to the white lace. The lace appears to be antique or vintage, with a delicate and ornate design typical of traditional lace-making techniques. The overall effect is one of intricate beauty and delicate craftsmanship. The lace is titled "Bobbin Lace (Rose Lace) Edging of Bell Points".
