Needlepoint (Reticella) Lace Band

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Needlepoint (Reticella) Lace Band by an unknown artist features a long, narrow, off-white lace strip on a black background. The lace is composed of intricate patterns of interwoven threads. The top and bottom edges of the lace have a scalloped appearance with small, tight loops. The main body of the lace consists of repeating floral and leaf motifs. These motifs are arranged in a symmetrical pattern across the width of the lace. The lace appears to be made from a single thread, woven into a complex design. The background behind the lace is solid black.
