Needlepoint (Punto in aria) Lace Edging

Cleveland Museum of Art

White lace edging with a rectangular shape and scalloped bottom. The lace features intricate floral patterns and geometric shapes. The top edge is mostly straight, with some slight wavering. The bottom edge has five scalloped sections, each with a teardrop shape. The lace is made of a white or cream-colored thread and appears to be made using the Punto in aria technique. The background is solid black.
