Needlepoint (Punto Avorio or Ivory Stitch) Lace Point

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of white lace against a black background. The lace is made up of intricate stitches and has a triangular shape, with the base of the triangle at the bottom and the point at the top. The lace is made from white thread, possibly cotton or linen, and features a repeating pattern of interconnected loops and stitches. The edges of the lace are frayed and rough, giving it a delicate and vintage appearance. The lace appears to be a type of needlepoint lace, specifically Punto Avorio or Ivory Stitch lace. The background of the image is solid black, which helps to highlight the details of the lace.
