Bobbin Lace Insertion without Selvage

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of off-white bobbin lace, titled "Bobbin Lace Insertion without Selvage", against a black background. The lace is rectangular, wider than it is tall, with a repeating pattern of interconnected loops and curves. The loops form a series of eight-pointed shapes across the width of the lace. The lace has a raw edge on both the left and right sides. The top and bottom edges of the lace are scalloped. The lace appears to be made from a single thread of off-white material, likely cotton or linen. The background of the image is solid black.
